Overview

Antler Berlin is a part of the global Antler network, known for its unique approach to building startups from scratch. Located in the heart of Europe’s startup ecosystem, Antler Berlin focuses on identifying and empowering exceptional individuals with the ambition to create high-impact companies. Unlike traditional accelerators that require a pre-existing team or product, Antler Berlin welcomes individuals who may not yet have a co-founder or even a specific idea but have the drive and potential to build something transformative.

The Antler Berlin program begins with a rigorous selection process, where successful applicants join a cohort of like-minded individuals. During the first phase of the program, participants are supported in finding co-founders and brainstorming business ideas. The program then moves into the validation stage, where teams work intensively on developing their concepts, testing market fit, and preparing for fundraising. By the end of the program, the most promising startups have the opportunity to pitch for pre-seed funding from Antler, typically around €100,000 in exchange for equity.

One of the key advantages of joining Antler Berlin is the access to a global network of mentors, advisors, and investors, as well as the vibrant local startup ecosystem in Berlin. The program is designed not just to help founders build their companies but also to prepare them for rapid growth and scalability on a global stage.

Antler’s commitment to diversity and inclusion is evident in its Berlin program, where it actively seeks to support founders from underrepresented backgrounds. The program’s structure and resources provide a solid foundation for turning innovative ideas into successful startups.
