What is the best innovation program for a fintech entering Mexico?
Usually a combination: a hackathon or innovation challenge to meet local developers, university programs to build trust with institutions, and events with the operators and investors a fintech needs to know. Mobil3 adds go-to-market support with local context, introductions and a launch plan.
What does an innovation program with Mobil3 cost?
Each program is scoped and priced in writing after a discovery of about two weeks, because format, cities, audience and duration change the budget. Programs for founders, developers and students are free for them; the companies and institutions behind each program cover its cost.
How is an innovation program measured?
Against the KPIs agreed before it starts: participants and who they are, teams and working prototypes, pilots with real users, developers using a product, and what happened after the program. Mobil3 reports program outcomes and never claims the projects participants build as its own.
