The Geovation Accelerator Programme is an exciting opportunity designed to help early-stage entrepreneurs bring well-validated, data-driven solutions to market.
The programme focuses on empowering startups with well-validated ideas, providing access to location, land, and property data, offering equity-free funding, tailored tech and data support, coaching, bespoke support from geospatial experts, industry workshops, workspace in London, opportunities to present at industry events, and culminating in a final showcase event.
Selected founders will benefit from up to £20,000 in equity-free funding, distributed across five instalments over 12 months, enabling them to accelerate their business development without giving up ownership. They will also gain access to a variety of open and proprietary datasets from programme partners, ensuring they can leverage critical data in building and refining their solutions.
Participants will receive coaching that covers any aspect of their entrepreneurial journey, whether personal or business-related. The programme provides bespoke support from a network of geospatial experts, corporate partners, alumni, and market leads to guide founders through technical and strategic challenges. In addition, workshops led by industry experts will focus on technology, customer engagement, and business model development to strengthen the startup’s readiness for market.
Founders are provided with 18 months of workspace at the Geovation Hub in London, including dedicated desks and bookable meeting rooms. They will also have opportunities to showcase their solutions at leading industry events and engage in communications activities to raise their profile within the ecosystem. The programme culminates in a final showcase event, where participants pitch their business to a wider audience of industry stakeholders and potential collaborators.
Applications are open for the Spring 2026 cohort, with the selection process including an application form detailing the problem, solution, validation, and market, followed by an interview for shortlisted candidates. The programme will select three startups for each track to join and benefit from 12 months of intensive support.
