Last update:

Amsterdam-based Startupbootcamp, a startup accelerator that provides investment and mentorship services, announced on Thursday that it has onboarded 11 new startups to participate in the second cycle of its sustainability programme.

Through the sustainability programme, Startupbootcamp and its co-investors provide funding and assist startups that are building prosperity, production, and powering solutions.

What does the sustainability programme offer?

Startupbootcamp says, “Connecting visionary founders with conscious global corporations, their corporate leaders, as well as experienced mentors and impact investors – our goal is to take “making impact” to the next level. We aim to support your business to develop and produce more sustainable products.”

This programme provides advice on all aspects of effective business growth, from product development to finance. The companies are also given direct access to mentors that have decades of experience in their respective sectors, as well as a network of possible partners and investors relevant to their particular business case.

The end of the programme, Demo Day, is an event where the chosen entrepreneurs present and pitch their startups to a group of mentors, partners, and investors. Alumni that successfully complete the accelerator programme join a worldwide alumni network where they may continue to get assistance while further developing their startups and interacting with experts, investors, and partners.

The programme will take place on December 1, 2022. Those interested to join the event can sign up via this link.
