What you get

Every company we cover came through one of three rooms.

Batches, not geography: about half DACH, half the rest of the world.

These are programs we write about. They are not partners or sponsors of The Batchroom.

Accelerators

A batch of startups, a fixed number of weeks, a demo day at the end.

Incubators

Earlier and slower. Founders get a home while the company takes shape.

Studios

The company is built in-house, with founders brought in along the way.

Every Thursday.
Under 5 minutes.

The companies that came out of the programs this week, the cheques behind them, and an operator's read on what it means.
