#Themes
Today we present the Lunar Incubator! (23:06-53:56)
- The founders, Janos Kubiczki and Daniel Janko, met at Corvinus University 7 years ago. They established the Youth Buisness Group(YBG), which main purpose is to develop the entrepreneurial skills and mentality of the university students. The community is active in various universities in 4 countries,which thanks to the initial success, led to the choice of the policy that is still in place today. Prior to this, they both gained their knowledge in multinational companies, during which time they realised that they wanted to move beyond consulting and background processes to active work, making decisions and bringing about change.
- Last year, at the launch of the Lunar Program Incubator the founders resembled their venture to the vision of landing on the moon, emphasising that the project requires perseverance similar to that process. At that time they had the vision of helping to broaden the mindsets of local and regional entrepreneurs, imparting cutting-edge methodologies and beliefs to encourage them to see that it is possible to launch a globally successful startup from Hungary. They involved people who had the knowledge to develop a stratup, and after one year they digitalized some part of their programmes by a Finnish startup called Claned, so the students can execute the course in hybrid way.
- Their goal is to make an active startup ecosystem and to support the founders to reach a national success. To achieve that, they apply desing thinking methodology and interactive workshops run by experts and startuppers.
- Today more than 30 teams apply for the programme and according to their expectation approximately they will work with 60 groups anually . They hope these startups will be succesful within 3-5 years.
- You can find their posts on Facebook and LinkedIn . Here you can register for the event.

Daniel Janko | Lunar Program Incubator
From the beginning his passion was to solve porblems and create new things. He’s always been really optimistic which helps him to reach his goals. Thanks to that, he got the language exam without any language skills and became the co-owner at the company where he was the worst trainee.
When he got older he realised not so many people have this mentality in Hungary, in turn we can reach worldwide success from our little country, if we believe in ourselves. This observation made the YBG’s purpose to develop students’ mentality and to teach them in order to work hard for their goals. He is so proud of themselves that nowadays they support 1200 undergraduate in this group. When they started the Lunar Program the ambition was to support the domestic startups and help them to understand the most modern method to solve the most difficult issues.
Csak nagyon kevesen hisznek benne, hogy ha eleget dolgoznak érte, akkor bármit elérhetnek. Akár hazánkból is elérhetünk világsikereket. Szerintem, aki nem hisz benne, az jó eséllyel soha nem lesz igazán sikeres, mert úgy indul neki a maratonnak, hogy össze van kötve a cipőfűzője. Amikor Janival és a többiekkel megalapítottuk a YBG-t, akkor számomra a legfontosabb célkitűzés az egyetemi hallgatók mentalitásának a fejlesztése volt: tanítsuk meg őket álmodni és keményen megdolgozni azokért az álmokért. Büszke vagyok rá, hogy a YBG-ben az elmúlt években több mint 2500 hallgatót és jelenleg is 1200 tehetséget támogathattunk ebben. Amikor tavaly belevágtunk a Lunar Program elindításába, akkor is hasonló volt a cél: segíteni a hazai és regionális start up-okat nagyban gondolkodni, átadni nekik a legmodernebb módszertanokat és a hitet, hogy a legnehezebb helyzeteket is átvészeljék. Azt mondják egy startup nem akkor bukik el, amikor elfogy a pénze, hanem amikor az alapítók feladják. Klisé, de végtelenül igaz…
