The Programme that Adapts to You
In a world of generic advice, we know that growth is not “one-size-fits-all”. That’s why we’ve designed Amplify — a new programme that flips the script and adapts to you. Whether you are an aspiring entrepreneur, a young budding professional, or further along in your career, we tailor this program to ensure you have the perfect path to your next breakthrough.
You don’t need a business, a team, or even a fully-formed idea to join us. You just need the drive to create something of your own. Whether you have a specific vision or are simply looking for the right problem to solve, Amplify provides the structure to move you from ‘Day Zero’ to real momentum.
The Shortcut Academy’s Amplify is made possible with the support of Yksityisyrittäjäin Säätiö.

Amplify combines expert-led sessions with semi-intensive weekend bootcamps that require your active participation. Your track will also provide you with specific resources that your journey demands.
Everything converges at our Intensive Bootcamp Weekends. These high-energy, hands-on sessions are where our entire community gathers to build, network, and solve problems. Depending on your goals, you’ll be placed into one of three paths:
- The Essentials Track: Our core business-building experience focused exclusively on the Intensive Bootcamps, open to everyone.
- The Women’s Track: The full Bootcamp experience plus dedicated expert sessions and a peer network for female leaders.
- The Explorer Track: A hybrid path for students and young professionals, pairing our entrepreneurship bootcamps with career coaching to help you strategically map your future.
Schedule
The programme features 3 Intensive Bootcamp Weekends that require full-day, in-person participation. These bootcamps are central to the curriculum and will take place on these following dates:
Week 17: April 25th and 26th
Week 21: May 23rd and 24th
Week 24: June 13th and 14th
The weekend bootcamps are held at Arcade 5 building, Maria 01. Selected participants will receive detailed schedules before the programme starts. Attendance in these bootcamps is crucial to completing the programme and receiving the certificate.
