Is fundraising your current focus? Then Start2raise is exactly what you need. This program makes pre-seed and seed startups investor-ready. You’ll learn all the tools for successful fundraising: from business plans and due diligence to authentic pitching.
24 months & 10 startups
Starting April 16, participating startups receive individual support over a 24-month period. For six months, they are guided by mentors specially selected for their specific needs and benefit from the expertise of Start2raise’s experts. Additionally, they receive various benefits and special terms from program partners.
Participants also get opportunities to present themselves to Start2raise’s extensive investor network – both through program events and at other events such as the Cashwalk. In addition, Start2raise offers all participants work opportunities in Munich. Participation is limited to ten startups.
Investments in the millions
The Start2raise program has many success stories. These include Spreadly and Spiritory. Spreadly provides quick and easy digital business cards for companies and allows integrations with common CRM tools. In summer 2023, the Munich-based company closed its pre-seed financing round at a company valuation of 2.5 million euros.
“Thanks to our participation in Start2raise, we brought our first investors on board”,
says Darius Göttert, co-founder of Spreadly.
The exchange-based live trading platform for rare spirits Spiritory also raised a six-figure sum in its first funding round in 2023 and expanded internationally. Janis Wilczura, founder of Spiritory, says:
“Start2raise has an impressive track record of supported companies.”
The application period ends on February 28.
