Hubs, Location & Partners
Start-ups can only apply in one region per programme cycle. By default, the start-ups will be geographically allocated to the hub that matches its headquarters (well-founded exceptions are possible).
The regions CENTRAL, EAST and SOUTH start their acceleration programme in July 2020, the regions NORTH and WEST will begin in January 2021.
In 2020, start-ups from regions North and West can choose the region they would like to be allocated to.
