The 4Innopipe2 Incubation Program is now open for applications, offering ambitious start-up teams the opportunity to accelerate their business ideas and prepare for national and international funding opportunities. Starting in mid-October 2025, selected teams will benefit from a unique combination of coaching, mentoring, and hands-on workshops delivered by experts from across Europe.

Over the course of six intensive sprints, participants will systematically develop their ventures—from validating ideas and building prototypes to refining marketing strategies, strengthening team collaboration, drafting business plans, and mastering investor pitches. The program includes:

• 10+ hours of 1:1 coaching with national and international experts (funded by 4Innopipe2)
• Workshops on customer validation, market analysis, competitor mapping, pitch training, legal aspects, and IP issues
• Access to a cross-border mentor network
• Final Pitch Day in front of an international jury, with the chance to win attractive cash prizes

The sprints run from November 2025 to April 2026, culminating in a Joint Pitching Event on 1 April 2026. This event will bring together top start-up teams to showcase their innovations and compete for recognition and funding.

The program is designed for motivated start-ups eager to gain international visibility, professional guidance, and direct exposure to funding opportunities in countries such as Germany, Finland, and Luxembourg.
