Prep4Seed is the Irish BICs’ 12-week accelerator for companies who are in the process of raising seed funding. During the accelerator we blend masterclasses with hands-on 1:1 consulting, intense pitch preparation, and networking opportunities with the Irish investment community.
The Prep4Seed programme includes five Masterclasses run by the Irish BICs and six one-to-one sessions concentrating on client-led bespoke activity with experienced BIC consultants. The one-to-ones ensure that content from the Masterclasses is applied in a relevant way to each company. The individual, tailored company focus, brings these start-up companies through the investor readiness process quickly and effectively.
Participants are also brought through intensive investor pitch preparation sessions and trial pitches preparing them for the Investor Pitch Day. The 12-week programme culminates with the Investor Pitch Day in May hosted by Enterprise Ireland, with investors invited from across the investment community.
Startup clients who are looking to raise a seed round in the next 6 to 12 months. Typically, clients will have secured PSSF funding from Enterprise Ireland.
