Pangstart Accelerator: Demo Day 2020
A unique investment opportunity
Accelerating your growth
Pangstart Accelerator is Smart Innovation
Norway’s three-month program to accelerate tech scaleups for growth. We help by providing customers, capital and competence in record time.
The goal is to help you raise capital and boost your sales with our innovation platform.
Pangstart Accelerator is an experience-based program designed by serial entrepeneurs, investors and seasoned leaders.
About the program
A 3-month, high-paced, experience-based accelerator program designed by serial entrepreneurs, investors, and industry leaders to help tech scaleups raise capital and boost their sales. Since 2016 we have accelerated more than 100 startups, and 95% are still operational and have been funded. We have successfully scaled some of Norway’s most hottest startups, and learned that running a successful startup/scaleup ultimately boils down to the founders ability to convince investors and customers; thus we have made that the focus of our program.
Throughout the program you’ll work closely with up to 20 investors attending our other program that runs in parallel with the accelerator, Pangstart Invest. In Pangstart Invest, the investors will screen your business case and make it more attractive, thus increasing your chanse of recieving funding. All investors are required to have a minimum of 50 000,- in available funds earmarked co-investing in the accelerator participants.
Smart Innovation Norway alumni companies include Unloc, TotalCtrl, LeadX and eSmart Systems.
