Testimonials
Participating in the InCube challenge was an immensely exhilarating experience that I will always cherish. The experience taught me the value of empathy towards both the people and the problem at hand.

Aveniq Cube 2022
The experience itself was really enriching, both the weekend in Crans Montana and the Incube itself. There I had the opportunity to meet amazing and fun people, above all allowed me to learn about the culture in South Africa, as that year there was a cube there.

Roche x IQVIA Cube 2022
So many great memories. It feels like I experienced two years in two weeks! Working and living in a glass cube with 4 strangers for 5 days was intense and exciting, but most of all it was a life lesson.
