You passed the initial incubation phase and are heading now towards production or market launch? Their Acceleration might help you to grow faster.
Goal
- The goal of the Accelerator is to support the growth of the startups so that they become more successful faster.
Benefits
- Starting from providing you office space at the AI Campus Berlin, they are also offering CEO mentoring, cloud credits, expert workshops, connections, and intros to investors. But that’s not all. They focus on your individual growth. If you need help with your marketing, sales, finance or team management, they are there to support. There is almost nothing that they cannot do.
Duration
- Their Accelerator program takes six months.
What are they looking for?
- They choose promising startups with AI-based business solutions that solve relevant problems. AI technologies must be of significance for the core product and the addressed markets should have enough potential for a sustainable business success. The founders must combine a necessary skill set for the next steps of the startup.
Eligibility Criteria
- You need to be an incorporated AI-based startup. If you are coming from Berlin that is great. If you are coming from anywhere else but Berlin, no problem as long as you come to the AI Campus Berlin a minimum of twice a week and to the events and workshops that are not online.
Selection Process
- Their selection process involves two steps. First, applicants complete an online form by the specified deadline. Once all applications are submitted, they review them internally to identify the most promising companies. Selected candidates are then invited to an online pitch session with their distinguished external jury. Each team has 10 minutes to present their pitch, followed by a Q&A session where the jury can ask questions. After all pitches are completed, the jury evaluates the teams and selects those who will join the next program batch.
