Founder Institute Germany - Graduation Spring 2023 - Online & Offline

Want to be inspired by courageous entrepreneurs? Here comes your invite to experience them live:

On June 22nd, 2023, we will gather graduates, mentors, investors, friends and future founders to celebrate the newest Graduates of the Spring chapter of the Founder Institute Germany. In addition to the Graduation Ceremony, guests will be treated to short business pitches from the graduates.

We expect to see companies graduating from a wide array of topics ranging from providing a welcome services for refugees through an AI enhanced and effective cybersecurity suite all the way to a company designing a device bringing more pleasure to open minded couples. This is the last chance to see the Spring 2023 cohort in its entirety and the first chance to see them as Founder Institute graduated companies!

The Founder Institute startup accelerator is an extremely challenging program, and graduating is a significant achievement. In fact, less than 40% of applicants are accepted to the program, and less than 30% of those generally make it through. Being a Founder Institute Graduate Company is a seal of approval, signifying that company's founders, mission, model, and plans are being validated by experienced startup CEOs. 

ATTENTION: As we will run this event as a hybrid event with the possibility to attend on site in Berlin, please carefully choose your tickets! We will charge a small cover charge for snacks & 1 drink for those joining us on site!

Who Should Attend?

Angel investors, early-stage venture capital firms, Founder Institute Mentors, Graduates, friends and family are all invited to attend. You are welcome to share this link with interested friends and colleagues. As we will announce opening of our next batch bound to start in September, entrepreneurs interested in founding a new company are also very welcome!
