Cube 5 seeks startups for cybersecurity incubator inCUBE Batch #2

The Cube 5 team from Bochum is sending its Next Gen Startup Incubator inCUBE into the next round. Early-stage cybersecurity startups can apply for Batch #2 until 30 September and benefit from customised coaching and networking content.

With inCUBE, Cube 5 has developed an innovative Next Gen incubator for the difficult first steps in the start-up process, which is completely tailored to the needs of early-stage start-ups in the areas of cybersecurity and IT security. The offer for ambitious founders focuses on sustainability and provides intensive five-month support for a maximum of five teams with customised further training and operational assistance. The participating teams can benefit from the connection to a strong regional to supra-regional start-up ecosystem with partners from science and business.

Batch #1, which started in May, is currently underway. Participants receive support from experienced experts on relevant topics such as business model development, company formation, sales, online and personnel marketing. In addition, they can access more than 200 software programmes for free or at significantly reduced rates and are considered for the provision of free office space in Bochum.

The inCUBE funding programme takes place twice a year, with new batches starting in the summer and winter semesters. Teams of two or more people from all over Germany can apply. There are no costs for the participants. Nor do they have to give up any shares in the young companies. The application deadline for the second batch is 30 September 2022.

Workshop Pathways to Funding in the US and Germany

10. January 2022 | on one's own account

Roundtable Workshop: Pathways to Funding in the US and Germany

The Ruhr University Alliance, the DWIH New York (German House of Science and Innovation New York) and the Worldfactory International of the Ruhr University Bochum invite on 26.01.2022 to a virtual roundtable workshop to compare the German and U.S. funding landscapes and cultures, look at similarities and differences, and the overarching themes across the Atlantic.

.

The workshop will analyze the relationship between a startup and its funding channels from the perspective of both the startup and the investor: What are the expectations/fears/goals of a startup? On the other hand, what are funders looking for when they decide to invest in a startup?

The goal of the roundtable workshop is to jointly develop a roadmap. The focus will be on university-affiliated startups with a tech/digital business model and their unique position in 2021/2022 in terms of funding and funding opportunities.

The event is limited to 40 participants* and is aimed at (future) startup founders specifically with university affiliation, industry experts and VCs.
