Přihlášky do 8. ročníku akcelerátoru startují
15. září 2025.

HOW IT WORKS

Program je selektivní a do ročníku může být přijato maximálně 15 startupů, které vybírá team Ment2Grow. Do programu je přijata zhruba třetina uchazečů, kteří se přihlásí. Program je 8 měsíční (listopad - červen). V listopadu proběhne kickoff akcelerátoru & matchmaking s mentory + první workshop. Leden až červen již běží pravidelné workshopy, eventy jako Pitch Nigh a Speed Business Meetings a v červnu na závěr akcelerátor vyráží na zahraniční business trip.

In order to register for the program, you must fill out a detailed application form and also complete an initial video interview.

V programu je očekávána aktivní účast na workshopech, eventech a mentoringu (50/50 online a prezenčně v business hubu Opero) - zvažte tedy prosím své časové možnosti předem, aby nebylo místo v programu blokováno pro jiného potenciálního účastníka. Aktivní účast v programu vyžaduje cca jeden až dva man-days v měsíci.

Mentoring and some other activities are only for startup founders. However, selected activities can also be used by other key team members or are designed specifically for them.

Program je financován díky podpoře našich partnerů. Účastníci hradí pouze provozní poplatek ve výši 55.000 CZK za osmiměsíční účast, s garancí vrácení částky, v případě, že nejsou s programem spokojeni.
