Make your startup into an investable business in 7 weeks with our Online Pre-Accelerator

Why join?

Online Pre-Accelerator is the perfect training ground for early stage startup founders to put their business in order and prepare for a full-time accelerator or the first investment round.

We are looking for:

  • at least two people team
  • with a draft version of MVP
  • and initial market research.

 

When scouting for startups for our accelerator program, we go through hundreds of pitch-decks and startup profiles, and we see that many founders waste a lot of time in the early days due to lack of some basics. Well, here we are to offer you to get those basics sorted in a 7 week online program with workshops, webinars, mentoring calls and a live Demo Day & graduation event. Brought to you by the passionate and professional team behind Europe’s most experienced B2B accelerator.

You will receive a professional feedback on your MVP, polish your pitch and after this you’ll be more prepared for real equity based acceleration program.

Applications are currently closed. The next program will be taking place at the end of March 2020.

What to Expect

Throughout the program, you will have:

Pre-recorded online workshop

and other recommended materials for your team to revise 

Open and scheduled Q&A sessions

with the coaches on particular subject

Mentoring sessions during the program

with mentors one-on-one

Discipline & weekly deliverables

to make sure you accelerate

Peer to Peer sessions

with participants for knowledge sharing
We will be working together for 7 weeks, divided in 2-3 weeks cycles. As we get closer to the graduation, we will be increasing the workload as we expect your startup to be getting more serious and to be ready to move full time by the end if you have not yet done it.
If we were you, we’d see this time as an opportunity to go big or home, namely – to make your team become a real startup and ready to be accelerated and invested, or realize that it won’t work and save time for your next startup idea.
Pre-Accelerator program is meant for early stage startup founders, who have the ambition to do the startup full time and are ready to sweat and fight for global success! Being open to constructive criticism and readiness to change will help you survive..
