They call themselves the world’s leading accelerator program within mobile technologies, devices and solutions. Startupbootcamp has existed since 2010, and now there is only 10 days until deadline for applications to the mobile version in 2015.
Startupbootcamp Mobile 2015 offers startups an intense 3-month course with a customised mentor and an initial funding of just over 110,000 Danish kroner per entrepreneurial team. The intention with the financial support is that the team must dedicate themselves completely to the accelerator program, as there is no time to study or work alongside.
According to the organisers, it often happens that the selected teams end up putting their social life on pause and work late into the night, to develop their project. Therefore Startupbootcamp Mobile 2015 also provides offices. This time at the co-working space Rainmaking Loft at Holmen in Copenhagen.
Present your idea of 300 investors
The three-month program culminates in Investor Demo Day at September 3rd in Copenhagen. Here the teams pitch their ideas for 250-300 international investors. One of the sponsors for the event, the Danish venture fund SEED Capital, has already put 1.5 million kroner aside for the team which according to them has the best idea.
After the program the best team is not just left to themselves. They have the opportunity to be a part of another program that is run by the Danish organisation Accelerace. Accelerace helps start-up companies develop. Through their program there is both mentoring, free office space and good borrowing capabilities.
The application deadline is April 26, and the program begins on June 8. You can read more about Startupbootcamp Mobile 2015 and apply for participation here.
