Officially launching our Startup Studio! This is a big milestone for us, and we're happy to take this next step in supporting startups. For years, we've been investing, partnering with, and supporting founders. In the past 4 months, we set a goal to better contribute to the startup ecosystem and create more successful ventures. We spoke with over 250 founders in Bulgaria, East Europe, the UK, and the Nordics. Our conversations confirmed key challenges to startup success and founders' struggles: ↳ It's very hard to find the right co-founder ↳ Accelerators/Incubators offer mainly theoretical help ↳ Founders don’t receive the mental and executional support they need Knowing all this, we decided to create a Startup Studio to provide founders with additional support, including: ↳ A playbook to go from idea to Product Market Fit ↳ Funding opportunities ↳ Silicon Valley team execution and performance ↳ A community of investors, business experts, and mentors If you're interested in applying, know someone who might be, or just want to learn more, here's how you can get involved: ↳ Apply to join our program ↳ Recommend founders who could benefit ↳ Join our team Check out at appolica[dot]com. #startups #founders #venturestudio #startupstudio

"Thank you, Iryna, I somehow never find these opportunities anywhere." That's what one of the founders messaged me after I shared another #accelerator application link. It got me thinking: there are so many awesome acceleration programs out there, but do founders even know about them? 🤨 For some founders, accelerators might not be necessary, but for others, they're a fantastic chance to learn the ropes in a structured way, test out their startup idea, meet important people, boost their credibility, and potentially get access to funding. 💸 To kick off, I am calling out Tenity, Female Founders, Startup Lisboa, FIRSTPICK and Beamline Accelerator. Perhaps you could share a few words about who this is tailored for and when the next batch is? Also, if you're a #startup #founder who has completed a program you enjoyed, I'd be interested to hear about it - how you learned about it, and what aspects you found particularly valuable. Your insights could be really helpful for others considering similar opportunities in the startup scene! 🫂 --- Writing to give back to the community.
