Mastering the EIC Accelerator Deck - From Read Deck to Live Pitch (in English) 

The EIC Accelerator is aimed at small and medium-sized enterprises, including start-ups, that are developing ground-breaking, high-risk Deep-Tech innovations with high market potential. The funding programme offers both grants and equity capital to bring innovations to market. The application process for the EIC Accelerator has three stages: In the first stage, a short application with a video and pitch presentation is submitted. In the second stage, the candidates with the best project proposals submit a full proposal. In the third stage, particularly promising applicants are invited to a face-to-face interview.

The aim of this webinar is to teach interested applicants how to create an effective EIC Accelerator Pitch Deck that can be used for Stage 2 of the application process and as a live pitch deck in the jury interview. Particular attention will be paid to storytelling, which should be both written and oral. The pitch deck should tell the "equity story" and not just be a "collection of slides with numbers".

Participation is open to all SMEs and start-ups that are interested in the programme, are currently submitting an application to the EIC Accelerator or are planning to submit an application. Proposal writing agencies are excluded from participation. Participation is free of charge.
