Think Accelerate is a 12-week program where startups develop their business ideas with support from experienced business developers.
“Think Accelerate has been around for 5 years and so far 46 companies helped. 53% of companies come from abroad, which means that we now have a community that spans Sweden’s borders. 85% of the companies that participated in Think Accelerate are still active and many of them come back in the form of mentors.” says Jenny Sandberg, Program Manager at Think Accelerate.
