HSG START Accelerator

About

We support selected European tech startups on their path to investor readiness by giving founders access to our ecosystem, experts and capital. Our program builds the business and strategic capabilities needed to complement technical excellence, unlock growth and succeed in fundraising. Founders connect directly with investors as well as academic and industry leaders, and startups in our program receive a grant, with the possibility of additional investment where appropriate. We operate as a non-profit and were founded by the University of St.Gallen, Switzerland Innovation Park Ost and START Foundation.

Unicap Partners

At Unicap Partners, we carefully examine and analyze each step that a start-up takes to succeed. However, not all start-ups are able to reach that goal. Even well-funded start-ups can struggle to grow, and initial traction may not be sustained long enough. This is where we aim to make a difference. We Are The Ecosystem For the Start-Up To Grow. We Assist You To Reach Agreed Milestones. Whether you receive investment from us or not, we provide mentoring to help you raise funds easily. Our primary focus is on investing in start-ups at the Pre-Seed, Seed, and Pre-Series A stages. However, we believe that providing support and guidance to our portfolio companies is just as important as providing funding. Our team is committed to helping you at every stage of your journey - from reaching the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) stage to defining your target market, creating an effective marketing strategy (online and offline), and raising subsequent rounds of funding, among other things.
