Amsterdam-based Startupbootcamp, a startup accelerator that provides investment and mentorship services, announced on Friday the list of teams that will participate in the third cycle of its Sustainability Accelerator

Through the Sustainability Accelerator, Startupbootcamp and its co-investors support startups in building Prosperity-, Production-, and Powering- solutions.

The selection process took place during the intensive Selection Week, a virtual event where numerous companies showcased their unique solutions. 

The week was packed and the audience witnessed 21+ hours of pitches that were the result of over 10,000 applications for the involved investment portfolios. 

This event garnered an astounding 10,000+ applications from aspiring startups eager to be part of the investment portfolios associated with the Sustainability Accelerator.

The teams were then assessed by a tailored panel of investors, industry leaders, mentors, and partners of Startupbootcamp. 

After concluding the week last Friday, the ten startups were chosen to join Startupbootcamp’s Sustainability Accelerator & Portfolio. Here’s an overview of the newly selected startups:

How the accelerator programme benefits startups

The accelerator programme will provide these ten companies with extensive support in establishing a thriving business, encompassing all aspects from developing a product to securing funding. 

During the 3-months accelerator, the startups are also provided with direct access to mentors and a network of potential partners and investors relevant to their specific business case. 

The accelerator equips startups with the tools necessary to accomplish their objectives, grow, and realise their full potential.

The end of the accelerator is marked by FUTRXPO (Demo Day), which will take place on December 7, bringing together 2000+ impact changemakers, investors, mentors, partners, and industry leaders.
