xdeck Accelerator

Program Context

The xdeck program is a 4-month accelerator for early-stage B2B tech founders. Participants receive an in-depth analysis of their startup, market and competition that they rarely get from a VC. In addition, they gain access to two strong networks: a corporate side with partners like McKinsey, law firms, tax advisors and Mittelstand companies offering free expertise, and a startup community of 110+ ventures, 250+ co-founders and over €400M raised.

Insider Tips

• Apply once too often rather than too rarely. The program is completely free, so there is nothing to lose. Even if you are unsure whether your startup is ready, it is worth putting your hat in the ring.
• You can swap your pitch deck after applying. If you apply today and want to exchange your deck before the deadline, just reach out. The xdeck team is open to updated versions as long as it happens before applications close.
• Talk to the team directly before applying. For deeper insights or open questions, book a slot with Justus Friederichs at https://cal.eu/justus.friederichs-xdeck.de/haus-xdeck or email justus.friederichs@xdeck.de. A short call often clarifies more than any FAQ page.
