This programme is aimed at teams of at least two people who have an idea in the field of AI or are already researching it and now want to turn it into a business model without having already founded a company. This is what they are offered:

Access to an extensive network.

Networking with investors.
Development of products and services.
Development of a marketing strategy.
Workshops on AI and startup topics.
Access to a network of AI experts and potential cooperation partners.
