Summary
August 9 is the deadline for applications to the Migrant Founders Accelerator 2026, which is targeting migrant-led startup teams in Germany.
Up to €2,000 in financial aid is available for prototype development and business-model validation, alongside mentorship, German market guidance, PR support and investor access.
The program combines two in-person events—Kick-off and Demo Day—with cohort-specific online sessions and broader community events for migrant founders.
Eligibility requires at least two co-founders, with one migrant-background founder, and a knowledge- or technology-based venture at prototype to early MVP stage.
