THE ACCELERATOR is a course of a maximum of 12 months, which is offered to specially selected startups, primarily within the verticals IT/tech, health and cleantech. The accelerator course provides access to the latest knowledge, the right collaborations and important contacts.
As a startup in INCUBA, you are surrounded by leading companies - startups and scaleups within IT/tech, health, cleantech as well as complementary industries and business areas.
At the beginning of the accelerator course, the following milestones are defined together with the founder (s):
• Proof of Technology
• Proof of Market
• Proof of Business model
In some cases, the Proof of Scaling Plan is also defined, but it depends on the maturity of the individual startup.
More than 300 companies have been through INCUBA's accelerator process. Of these, 8% were direct spinouts from Aarhus University. Over half had a master’s degree and 10% a PhD, while 21% had female founders. 59% still have a legal registration number.
The INCUBA community is a vibrant and innovative network consisting of early-stage startups and scaleups. Here you will find the right mix of pre-seed and seed, which gives you access to the exact knowledge, advice or capital that your company needs on the growth journey.
Our vision is to play a crucial role in the community we are building with our companies and partners. A place where the distance from thought to action is short, and where the fact that we also have fun together and meet each other at the coffee machine, helps to push your business forward.
We know that early meetings with other entrepreneurs, potential investors, mentors, and advisors are crucial for startups to make the right choices. Therefore, it is an essential part of INCUBA's accelerator process that startups early pitch their companies to investors, mentors, and advisers before the need for capital and advice becomes relevant.
We arrange informal 1:1 meetings between founders and investors. Often with some of the business angels that are part of INCUBA. In addition we regularly invite founders and teams to participate in the pitch event Gin & Tech which is one of the best opportunities in the accelerator process to expand the network to investors and advisors.
