BEAMLINE ACCELERATOR
OUR VISION
INVESTING IN CLEAN INNOVATION
We are the climate accelerator for cleantech startups. Having established the cleantech sector in the region, Beamline came into life to meet the needs of the market – there is a sudden growth in the number of cleantech startups and segments, but there are only generic accelerator programmes. As a topic-focused accelerator, we offer a tailor-made approach to each start-up, delivering services and networks to fuel organic growth. By attracting top startups to the program, we also create synergies to amplify learning. Industry-specific content and stakeholders that can really accelerate our ambitious startups, will take your startup to another level!

“I think one of the most valuable things is definitely people in Beamline. If you get chosen into the batch, you’ll have the access to people who have a lot of answers to a lot of questions (in topics startup development, investments, operations, hiring or whatever you may think of). So network is crucial and you will have great network during the accelerator and also afterwards!”
