Techstars, a global startup accelerator that helps entrepreneurs succeed, announced on Monday that it has partnered with the automaker Audi to support innovative founders working in the digitalisation and mobility spaces.
This marks Techstars’ first-ever pre-accelerator in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA). The announcement comes after launching two new accelerator programmes in Paris and Stockholm last September.
What to expect?
In this pre-accelerator programme, any individual founders with an innovative idea or early-stage founders will receive valuable startup education, mentorship, community building, and access to the Techstars global network of entrepreneurs, mentors, investors, and partners.
Additionally, they will receive support from Audi’s technology and mobility expertise across various business units. The pre-accelerator programme will also enable participants to hone their entrepreneurial skills, connect with fellow founders for possible collaborations, and understand their target customers.
