By Free Electrons, the first energy global accelerator is ready to kick off its Bootcamp phase. In total, the program received 481 applications, from 62 different countries, a ‘spread’ that talks volumes about the international reach of the program.
The program only had a 10% repeat rate, and that means 90% of the startups we attracted are new entries, and that talks to the global visibility of the program, and its growing appeal.
The bootcamp
The bootcamp, held in Dublin (Ireland) from 2nd to 4th, will be critical for the success of the program, since this is when utilities and startups meet for the first time, to discuss the challenges and what the solutions to meet those challenges will look like.
This is also when the terms for the pilots are first set, and this will pretty much define the final quality of the pilots and the program as a whole.
The selected startups
These are the innovators that will be flying to Dublin to meet the 10 Free Electrons’ partners and join the Bootcamp activities:
