Five acceleration paths

Dowiedz się więcej o 5 ścieżkach akceleracji

Path 1

Acceleration of start-ups with a business or public partner (B2B/B2A) as the technology recipient

 

By choosing this path, start-ups receive support of up to PLN 400,000 for professional activities leading to the development of their product and the pilot implementation of the solution at the technology recipient.

When it comes to technology recipients, what is new in this edition and this path is that they can be not only large enterprises, but also small companies, local government, and the public sector units.

  • A technology recipient must have its business registered in Poland.
  • Prior to the start of cooperation, Polish Agency for Enterprise Development must agree to the participation of a business or public partner as a technology recipient.
  • The technology recipient makes its own contribution in the form of a financial contribution. In return, it can test the start-up’s solution (which is supported by up to PLN 400,000) and has the option of commercial pre-emption.

Path 2

Acceleration of start-ups with a Venture Capital fund (investor)

 

As in the path above, in this case start-ups receive support of up to PLN 400,000 for professional activities leading to the development of their product and pilot implementation of the solution with the technology recipient.

As far as the technology recipient is concerned, in the case of this path, it is a VC fund or an individual investor/business angel. The advantage for the investors is to minimise the investment risk. By making a financial contribution of their own, they can test the start-up’s solution before the final investment decision.

Path 3

Go Global acceleration – in cooperation with a foreign partner

 

This is an attractive path for start-ups, as they receive support of up to PLN 400,000 for foreign expansion, i.e. network building, participation in trade fairs, and other events or cooperation with a foreign technology buyer. When deciding to Go Global, they cannot test abroad the same product that was previously tested during acceleration in Poland.

For this pathway, the form of own contribution to be made by the technology recipient will be determined on an individual basis.

Path 4

Poland Prize acceleration – only for start-ups from abroad

 

This acceleration was created for start-ups that want to develop their technological products in Poland and establish a business here. They can use the support of up to PLN 400,000 for both soft-landing in Poland and testing the solution for the technology recipient.

In the case of this path, the technology recipient makes a financial contribution of its own. In return, they can test the solution.

Path 5

Sector-agnostic acceleration – without business partner participation

By opting for this path, start-ups can receive support of up to PLN 200,000, which is less than in the other accelerations. Sector-agnostic does not involve the participation of a business partner.
