HOW TO APPLY FOR OUR STARTUP PROGRAM

Our application process is divided into the steps below. These steps are consequent, meaning that you need to succeed in step 1 to move to steps 2 and 3. You will get detailed information from our team. The overall process from steps 1 to 3 can take from 1 to 1.5 months.

  1. Online application: F6S application (Answer questions + upload your latest pitch deck) - check the deadline above!

  2. Video call: we want to talk to you to clarify open questions and we always invite experts from our corporate partners to join. This is also your chance to ask questions.

  3. Final pitch in front of the jury: We invite up to 12 startups to pitch in front of a jury of our corporate partners. This session is generally virtual and after the pitch the startups joining the program are announced. You will receive more instructions from RootCamp’s team if you are a later-stage startup applying for the Implementation Program.

 
IMPORTANT NOTE: This is valid for both the 3-month Acceleration Program for early-stage startups as well as for the Implementation Program for later-stage startups.

We have learned how to professionalize our structures and have, for example, hired more employees for the back office. The weekly coaching sessions are extremely helpful. This way, we can start the next growth step in a few weeks. The exceptional practical experience of the RootCamp team has also given us a lot of food for thought for the next to-do's.
