The Founder Institute, a Silicon Valley-based idea-stage accelerator and startup launch programme, announced today the graduation of ten startup companies in Luxembourg.
The companies that will graduate from the first cohort of Founder Institute Luxembourg span across multiple industries such as Artificial Intelligence, Aviation, Cyber Security, Education, FinTech, Human Resources, Legal, Real Estate, Social, Travel & Tourism and more. Many of the world’s fastest-growing start-ups have used the Founder Institute to transition from employee to entrepreneur, test their start-up ideas, build a team, get their first customers and raise funding.
Just a few months ago, local Founder Institute directors Anna Radulovski and Ivo Radulovski announced the launch of this extremely challenging start-up accelerator programme, together with Elvinger Hoss Prussen and other partners. Less than 30% of all applicants were accepted to the programme in Luxembourg and less than 30% of those made it through.
The latest graduate companies from the Luxembourg programme include:
- ChefPassport, a web and mobile application to connect cooking lovers with local cooks and chefs around the world to deliver live streaming private cooking classes;
- Concio, which helps travellers save time by gathering personalised travel activities and enabling them to book all of them with a single click/tap;
