Eindhovense accelerator HightechXL splitst zich af van Startupbootcamp

Vooral Griekse en Sloveense startups bij Startupbootcamp HighTechXL editie 3

Een opmerkelijk voorval deze week: mentoren van Startupbootcamp HightechXL in Eindhoven kregen een cryptisch mailtje vanuit Startupbootcamp dat het team van de Eindhovense hardware-accelerator ‘helaas niet verder [gaat] met ons gezamenlijke concept’. Het team achter HightechXL laat vandaag per mail – bij monde van directeur Guus Frericks – weten dat HightechXL ‘zijn vleugels uitslaat’ en zich opmaakt voor een vierde editie: ‘The Best of Eindhoven’. Kortom: HightechXL splitst zich af van Startupbootcamp en er zijn straks twee hardware-accelerators in de Brabantse stad.

HightechXL niet verder met Startupbootcamp

Het begon gisteren met het volgende mailtje: “Zoals je wellicht reeds vernomen hebt, gaat het team wat Startupbootcamp HighTechXL heeft opgezet en de afgelopen 3 jaar heeft geleid helaas niet verder met ons gezamenlijke concept”, schrijft Marc Wesselink, Selection & Alumni Partner Startupbootcamp Amsterdam. “Aangezien wij vanuit Startupbootcamp Global de potentie van de regio erkennen en ontzettend trots zijn op de community die rondom SBC is ontstaan, zijn wij voornemens om hoe dan ook door te gaan met het HighTechXL programma in Eindhoven. We zijn druk bezig met het formeren van een nieuw regionaal team, welke (sic) dit gaat realiseren.”

Mentoren bijeen

HightechXL roept intussen zijn mentoren bijeen op 21 en 24 maart om een preview te geven wat de Eindhovenaren van plan zijn. Startupbootcamp organiseert intussen een bijeenkomst voor de mentoren met een lunch in Eindhoven, op 21 april. Daar zal Startupbootcamp ook zijn verdere plannen in de regio onthullen. Wesselink: “We hebben het succes van de afgelopen jaren niet in de laatste plaats te danken aan een netwerk van top-mentoren en we willen graag onze samenwerking voortzetten in de volgende editie.”

Geen commentaar

Frericks van HightechXL onthoudt zich van commentaar. Dit is zijn mail aan de mentoren:

Rumour has it that we have been preparing for something big here at HighTechXL in Eindhoven. And it’s true. We have not paused for a moment ever since Demo Day, and now we’re ready to share the spectacular news with you.

HighTechXL will soon continue with its next edition – “The Best of Eindhoven”. After partnering with Startupbootcamp for three program editions, it was time for us to spread our wings. HighTechXL has earned its place as one of the world’s most impactful organizations, both for its program for startups and its regional influence. Thus, we can’t help but see its enormous potential beyond a startup accelerator.

True to ourselves and to our ambition, we are building a new and much larger initiative that will strengthen our local high-tech community and the collaboration between its members. Driven by our strong commitment to the region, we will continue working towards turning Eindhoven into the “High tech startup capital of the world”. This is not just a loose slogan from our Demo Day. We are putting our heart and soul into this undertaking, and we can’t wait to share the details of the plan with you.

For the sake of avoiding confusion, we would like to note that we know that you have been approached by our former colleagues from Startupbootcamp in Amsterdam. The choice is, naturally, in your hands. We would just like you to know that we will gladly continue this journey together with you. It is a fact that over the past three program editions our achievements have been just as much your achievements. You have breathed your energy and dedication into the program and into the startup teams, and for that we are extremely grateful.

NB: ik ben en blijf mentor bij zowel Startupbootcamp als HightechXL
