Questions & Answers

In our programs, we focus on developing the strategy for the next phase of your business. Through masterclasses, coaching, exchanges with fellow impact entrepreneurs, and expanding your network with strategic partners and financiers, we ensure that you have a clear action plan for the future and know exactly who to work with to achieve it. In concrete terms, this means you’ll have a well-defined strategy, a solid action plan, insight into your funding needs, and relevant contacts.

Our programs are always tailored to a group of entrepreneurs within a specific impact theme and growth stage. The criteria for each program are clearly outlined—think about the type of impact you want to achieve, whether you’re already generating revenue, and more. This ensures that you only sign up for a program that truly benefits you. Have a conversation with our team to find the program that fits you best.

For most programs, we charge a small participant fee that covers a portion of the costs. The majority of the expenses are funded by our impact partners. It’s important to note that we do not take equity in the companies that participate in our programs.

Most programs consist of several sessions spread over approximately 3-4 months. Once companies are accepted into a program, we begin with an in-depth diagnosis, matching you with a suitable mentor, conducting content-rich group sessions and individual coaching, and connecting you with relevant partners. Programs usually conclude with a vibrant networking day full of pitches to partners and financiers.

We don’t make ‘standalone’ matches with potential financiers outside of our programs.

During our events, we bring together innovators around various themes. Additionally, through our open innovation projects, we create matches between pioneers and established companies—a win-win that leads to the creation of a market for sustainable innovations.
