Here are some Frequently Asked Questions about the LearnSpace acceleration program:

1- Who can apply?

Every European Edtech startup at pre-seed or seed stage with:

(1) a strong and resilient team,

(2) metrics to put forward — you need to have users already and to show traction — it’s OK if you don’t have paying customers yet (although it would be great to see some selling efforts),

(3) a growing market within Edtech (K-12, Higher education and lifelong learning) and

(4) a product or service that is really innovative.

2- How to apply?

You have until Sunday, April 8th to apply on F6S by following this link.

3- Do you invest in startups?

We don’t currently invest cash in our startups, but we have a strong network of investors (VCs and Business Angels) that are keen to invest in our portfolio of startups.

Our promise is to support our startups in their fundraising process both during and after the 10 weeks of acceleration.

4- What happens after the 10 weeks?

The support that we provide to startups selected to join LearnSpace will far beyond the 10 weeks of the program. We’re fully committed to our startups’ long-term success and want them to see the LearnSpace ecosystem and network as a lifelong asset for their company.

As part of the LearnSpace alumni network, we’ll continue to provide you with strong support and will be available at all times to introduce you to the right people and give you strategic advice and feedback.
