What can the Startups expect

In a four-month class phase, the participating startups will undergo various workshops, coaching sessions, and individual consultations. The topcis that will be covered range from business model development to certification, financing and to marketing and sales. In addition to these core topics, soft skills such as time and project management or negotiation skills as well as pitch training are also offered.
