The long-awaited Season 5 Demo Day of Elevate AUBG Accelerator is in the books! 🤩 Congratulations to the seven teams who poured their hearts and souls into their startup ideas over the last 18 weeks and well-deserved for those who received funding from the $30,000 investment pool - Verdere, Enthela, and Regrounded. It's almost five years since the start of the program empowering AUBG students and alumni to kickstart their ventures. We are glad to be part of this journey and to be supporting its growth! 🙌 A big thank you goes out to all the donors and supporters who believe in the long-term vision and value of the accelerator, the dedicated mentors who worked tirelessly with the participating student-led teams, and of course, the stellar Elevate managing team! The best is yet to come! 👀 Learn more in Капитал's article - https://lnkd.in/dSHiW_au.

🚀 За да генерира една стартъп екосистема повече качествени компании и продукти, се нуждае от качествени предприемачи. А за да има качествени предприемачи, е необходимо да генерира такива още в училище и университета. 👩🎓 Това е целта на акселератора на American University in Bulgaria, който обучава студенти с идеи за бизнес, предоставя им менторство и мрежа от контакти в екосистемата, а и ги подкрепя финансово, за да пуснат продукта си на пазара. Програмата се организира в партньорство с фонда за рисков капитал Eleven Ventures, ангел инвеститори и предприемачи. 5️⃣ В петото издание на #Elevate три от общо седем отбора получават финансова инжекция в размер на 10 хил. долара, с която да реализират идеите си. Това са #Verdere, Enthela и #Regrounded. Общото между всички екипи е, че разработват физически продукт. https://lnkd.in/dSHiW_au
