At the AiDiA Startup Pitch on September 2, 2023, eight startups from Germany, Austria, or Switzerland will have the opportunity to present their business models on a big stage in front of a jury. The winning teams will receive prize money totaling up to 53,000 euros. Additionally, they will receive support from coaches and mentors to prepare their ideas for market maturity.

In addition to the pitches, this event is all about networking: interested participants can exchange ideas about new business cases, meet inspiring entrepreneurs, discover live acts, and enjoy Afro-German fusion cuisine.

AiDiA Startup Pitch: How to apply?

The selection of six finalists is made by the AiDiA Advisory Board, which is an independent panel of experts from business and science. Additionally, two teams have the opportunity to advance directly to the finals through an AiDiA social media campaign.

The following information is required for your application:

  • General information about the team/company
  • Business model/business idea
  • Product/service
  • Motivation
  • The team
  • Team photos
  • Application video
  • Business plan or a pitch deck

Applications will be accepted or rejected on May 13, 2023. If your application is successful, participants commit to attending the preparation workshops on August 12, 2023, and August 13, 2023.
