Startupbootcamp is an accelerator that helps startups from across Europe to kick start their business. The accelerator is founded in Denmark, but has since then evolved to become a European accelerator program also welcoming startups outside Europe.
One of the programs that Startupbootcamp offer is Startupbootcamp Mobile, and the 2015 edition has just found its participants. Over the weekend 13 startups from Europe, India and the United States were invited to Copenhagen. After the weekend the 13 were whittled down to eight.
In total Startupbootcamp Mobile 2015 received more than 300 applications, which made it an honor just to be part of ‘Selection Days’. But there was not room for everyone, and the eight startups that now constitute Startupbootcamp Mobile 2015 are:
