Grace Berlin Accelerator
We developed the Initiative Grace - Accelerate Female Entrepreneurship to drive female empowerment, accelerate ideas and actively contribute to change and increase economic and social impact.
Ignore Gravity is now an official partner of the “Berlin Startup Stipendium”. The scholarship program for founders and early-stage startup teams is funded by the State of Berlin and the European Union Social Fund (ESF).
The “Grace Berlin Accelerator” program has a special focus on female entrepreneurship, and was selected by the Berlin Senate as the official pilot program of Berlin to foster female entrepreneurship as part of the Berlin “Chancenfond”. State Secretary Michael Biel visited us in our office and handed over the grant to our team. You can read more about it in a recent feature on Tagesspiegel.
Thanks to this funding can support 30 founders in developing their ideas, entrepreneurial skills and mindset. Aspiring founders will receive an impactful entrepreneurship program along with a scholarship for 6 months to fully concentrate on their venture.
Within our Initiative Grace - Accelerate Female Entrepreneurship we have already supported over 120 women with a passion for entrepreneurship and innovation. We are excited to launch and grow this new program and accelerate female entrepreneurship even more.
The program is open to all industries and various startup initiatives (including non-profit ventures).
Please find further information about the Grace Berlin Accelerator Program on the Grace Website.
Applications are open until September 24!!!
The project is supported by the European Social Fund Plus with funds from the European Union and the State of Berlin:
