From today until May 19th, startups can apply for the six month accelerator program and €120,000 investment via www.frontechaccelerator.it.
Algorand Foundation is proud to announce its role as a technical partner in the newly launched Frontech Accelerator, a program of CDP Venture Capital’s National Accelerator Network. With support from CDP’s own Accelerator Fund as well as co-investors GELLIFY and Cariplo Factory, the program has a total endowment of over €7 million.
Frontech’s focus is on so-called “frontier” technologies, or those enabling digital transformation, with applications such as digital identity, intellectual property authentication, generative AI models, gaming, AR/VR, digital art, and more.
Ten startups in seed and early stage phases will be selected every year for three years, with each receiving an initial investment ticket of €120 thousand and a six-month program focused on strengthening their business proposals, with interactive sessions in four key areas:
- Vertical technology
- Product development & service design
- Business development
- Fundraising
As a technical partner, Algorand will provide mentorship and guidance to accepted startups throughout the duration of the program.
Frontech Accelerator will be based in Sardinia, with a reference base in Cagliari. Participation is open to both Italian and international startups that intend to open a registered office in Italy. Applications are open from today until May 19th.
