What are the 
B Acceleration Programs?

The main objective of the B Acceleration Programs is to drive collaborative innovation projects between top startups and local and international technology companies, along with our corporate partners.

Selected companies will have the opportunity to offer solutions that can be implemented in real environments, collaborating with them in the development of testing and proof of concept.

Moreover, BAT provides a comprehensive support package aimed at accelerating the development and growth of the selected startups through an intensive work program, facilitating market proximity, connections, access to funding, training, mentoring, and a dedicated workspace for project development.

What benefits does the acceleration program offer?

While there are many acceleration programs out there, the distinctive feature of the B Acceleration Programs lies in the fact that they are based on challenges presented by leading companies in search of new technological solutions for their own challenges. For this reason, the added value compared to other acceleration programs is that corporations offer:

· Technical support through technical specialists
· Real testing environments and real data for testing
· Possibility to develop Proof of Concepts (PoCs) in real environment

Additionally, they also provide all the value offered by top-notch acceleration programs:

· Masterclasses, mentoring, and guidance from experts to mature and scale your business
· Google Cloud credits
· Workspace at BAT
· Financial assistance to attend and establish in Bizkaia (see terms and conditions)
· Access to networking events and activities
· ...and many more advantages of being part of our community.
