Rockstart Accelerator was founded in 2011 and has already accelerated twenty startups in two previous web/mobile programs. 70% of our first batch of startups was funded by investors like Greylock, Vitulum Ventures and other renowned Dutch angels. Rockstart also has had a strong international focus since its inception and has already invested in startups from 10 different countries.

We offer startups the chance to grow their businesses in the heart of Amsterdam. We accept 10 startups in every program and invest in them with 15.000 euros of seed funding, provide them an extensive network of 100+ mentors, workspace in the centre of the city, and many in-kind services and products of over 84.000 euros of worth that you can find here. Startups will have the chance to pitch in front of VCs, Angels and journalists from around the world on Demo Day at the end of the program (here is a video to get a feel of our Demo Day). There is an optional summer program which helps startups gain market traction, close funding, deal with PR and includes a one month trip to Silicon Valley.

The deadline for applications that is the 17th of January

Lithuanian startups

The Lithuanian startup scene is well known for its strong focus on IT technologies, mobile and web services and innovative companies with global potential such as GetJar, Yplan and Vinted. Which is the reason Rockstart Accelerator is looking to expand its connection to the Lithuanian scene and reach out to promising startups in Lithuania.
