Last week we joined the deGut – German Founders’ and Entrepreneurship Days trade fair, a comprehensive platform for aspiring entrepreneurs and for gaining insights on how to found a business. A big part of the program was dedicated to female entrepreneurship and empowerment.

This year we were very fortunate since we had the possibility to exhibit together with two other incubators.

What we have in common?

Together with Grace Accelerator and avant now we are the three selected incubator that are able to offer the Berlin Startup Scholarship Women. The scholarships are intended to support around 60 female founders or startup teams. They will receive funding of up to 2,200 euros per month for 9 months (at the Startup Incubator Berlin, duration differs) during the start-up phase.

Our project lead Katrin Jahnke had the honor to receive the official grant notice personally from our Senator for Economic Affairs Franziska Giffey on stage and two of our female founders, Daria Trints with Periodly and Katharina Schultz-Ebert mit Unite had the chance to pitch their startup idea with great support from other female founders from the SIB!

We are very proud and thankful that we are able to empower future female founders and non-binary persons with such a program and more to come.
