Opportunity: Apply for the January Startup Bootcamp pitching!
January 23rd, Swedish Startup Sessions – together with KTH and Mosync – is proud to host the Stockholm leg of the joint Startupbootcamp and VentureScout Nordic sourcing tour.
We are looking for great startups that in turn are looking for great international breakout opportunities. We will handpick some companies and select others from this open call. In total, around 10-12 companies will pitch in the afternoon January 23rd at the KTH Reactor at the KTH Campus in Stockholm.
Is your startup the one we're looking for?
We are looking for startups that have reached - or are close - to the alpha/beta stage Cool if you have users and possibly also revenue.
We are focusing on three main sectors:
1) B2C startups within social networking, publishing-related fields and social shopping/e-commerce. For these startups we have a large interested corporate investor so you should be interested in taking investments and you should have proof of concept, validated business model and traction.
2) Startups within the Health/Medical field to be recommended for Startupbootcamp in Dublin (HealthXL) and ICT/Web for the Amsterdam Startupbootcamp, both starting shortly.
3) Early-stage startups (cool team working on an idea) within the mobile field, both B2B and B2C as well as both software, hardware, apps and SaaS for the Copenhagen "Mobility" focused program starting summer 2013.
Startupbootcamp, the most effective startup accelerator in Europe, is re-launching in Copenhagen during 2013 to secure the close relationship to the many great startup teams in Scandinavia.
SBC offer €15K, free housing and co-working space, a 3-month super-intense personalized Mentor program with top-notch international mentors, Investor Demo Day, Investor Roadtour to London and Silicon Valley and a long list of sponsor benefits in return for 8% equity.
