Accelerator – General Accelerator, Government-backed Accelerator, University & Research Institution Accelerator
SpinLab – The HHL Accelerator
The multi-awarded program for energy, smartcity and eHealth startups
The program was initiated to foster
innovation in sectors with a high public
interest, but typically complex and
slow processes. We provide a highly ranked and awarded program, where we combine our longtime know-how and wide network with the resources and market expertise of leading energy, smart city, and health companies such as VNG Group, AOK PLUS, Leipziger Gruppe, or Porsche.
We offer a hybrid program combining
top elearning material from wellknown
practice experts such as Frank
Thelen or Florian Heinemann with interactive
on-site workshops. We focus
on financing and market entry. One of
the main advantages is that we select
startups to realize pilot projects with
our partner companies. We provide
up to 50.000 € (no equity- no share).
