HPI Venture Builder

Venturing is a radically proactive and inclusive approach to build, establish and grow startups while consistently applying a clear roadmap during the entire development and growth process. In other words, it is about iterative ideation and validation of a business idea, ultimately leading to a real startup. The Incubator for Digital Engineers is designed to structure and support the creation of your business model at a very early stage so that your promising business idea can be developed and turned into a Minimum Viable Product (MVP).  

Our program consists of customized workshops, expert input sessions, and mentorship from experienced entrepreneurs. Each week focuses on a specific entrepreneurial topic, helping you refine your business model and build your venture while we support you. We provide guidance and address your individual needs, challenges, and financing opportunities to help you succeed. The incubation program starts with a Kick-off event at an off-site location where you meet other participants and the support team. Midway through the program, you'll pitch to investors at "Challenger Day," receiving valuable feedback to prepare for fundraising. The incubator ends with the final "Tomorrow Day," where each team will present their venture idea and get another opportunity to connect with venture capitalists and business angels.

We aim to get you and your startup to a level where you are ready to convince first customers and secure funding. After the program, we will close the batch and individually support your team on the next steps. You will become a lifelong member of our founder's community with access to networking events and advisory appointments.

Everyone can be a tech entrepreneur. We believe that talent and innovative ideas can come from various backgrounds. Our aim is to create an inclusive and diverse community of entrepreneurs. To achieve this, we will support you on your journey.With our incubation program, you can take your business idea to the next level.
