What is this?

Financing rounds and fundraising pose major challenges for many startups, as the founding team often lacks the necessary knowledge to approach investors. As part of ecosystem management, StartHub Hessen and TechQuartier have launched a new program that consists of an all-day free workshop and optional coaching sessions.  Only 13 startups are accepted for each workshop.

Last year, about 65 startups participated in multiple workshops. This popular program will continue through 2023. 

What is offered?

We offer two free workshops to prepare you for fundraising and the opportunity to sign up for paid individual coaching
