Early stage tech startups sought for Raise Autumn Accelerator Programme

by Startacus Admin
Need some support to validate your startup and get investor-ready? Applications are now open for the Raise Accelerator programme which will give you just that...
If you’re interested in developing your startup, learning new business knowledge, exploring your leadership skills and understanding more about the startup investment landscape, then the Raise Autumn Accelerator Programme would be well worth a look.
Based in Belfast, Raise works with a range of startups across Northern Ireland, Ireland and the UK. It’s a bespoke programme that aims to equip new startup founders with all the tools and knowledge they would need to take their startup to the next level. And, what is particularly great is the fact that it only works with 6 founders every 6 months, thereby ensuring that each founder’s needs and objectives are met.
Over the course of the 6 month programme, founders learn from the Raise mentors and their peers on how to grow and scale their startup and look for early stage pre seed investment.
In return for mentoring, knowledge, connections and support Raise asks for a 6% equity stake in each business. Their own success is therefore tied to the success of each of the startups they work with and since 2019 they’ve worked with 14 great startups, helping them to progress from innovation to validation to commercialisation to securing some investment.
If you’d like them to help your startup progress like this, then why not take part in the upcoming Raise Autumn Accelerator.
Applications are now open and will remain open until 5 pm on Friday 27th August.
Best of luck to all who apply!
