The startups accepted into the Accelerator Program will have the opportunity to collaborate with F10 Corporate Partners in Switzerland and connect with the international F10 ecosystem.
Furthermore, they will also get access to the F10 Investor Network and learn to improve sales, scaling as well as fundraising skills.
The program consists of three monthly 3-day bootcamps, the first one will start on 22 February, online due to continued lockdown restrictions in Switzerland. The cohort will conclude with a public Pitch Party on 5 May.
The F10 Acceleration Program, which premiered with its first cohort in 2020, aims to facilitate POCs, pilots and other collaboration between startups and Swiss banks, insurance companies as well as the Swiss stock exchange SIX.
The program helps startups to succeed in the Swiss ecosystem and boost innovation for the F10 Corporate Partners. Participating startups will be supported by mentors and investors at F10 in Zurich and will also increase chances to gain exposure in the Spanish and Singaporean ecosystem.
