Activate

The Activate program offers an eight-week acceleration period for teams to validate their business idea and develop a prototype while receiving hands-on support.

Activate runs three times a year and is open to teams with international potential and a focus on sustainability. Teams will receive office space, workshops, coaching, access to a network of corporate partners and investors, and a community of other entrepreneurs.

The program is hands-on and requires a 50% commitment, but can be attended while working or studying full-time. The program is looking for ambitious teams who are agile and adaptive in finding the best problem-solution and product-market fit.

Companies accpepted into the Activate get cheaper office space for the duration of the program and until the following round of admissions (i.e. if you get into Activate in the spring, you can stay until the fall application deadline).
