In November 2020, 20 startups joined Beta Start - Tourism , a pre-acceleration program designed to support entrepreneurs in building their early-stage companies in the tourism sector.

After 12 weeks, 3 intensive bootcamps and hours of hard work and mentoring, teams are ready to pitch their startups on Demo Day to expand their network and seek for further collaboration opportunities!

However, out of the 20, only 5 startups will be pitching in the live event and will have a chance to win the final prize of 5.000 EUR.

WHY only 5 startups?

These will be the most voted ones.

Between January 25 and February 3, startup pitches will be available on Beta-i YouTube channel and registered participants will vote for the best idea. We'll gather all votes, as well those from our jury and the program team and on February 3, we'll announce 5 finalists.

Visit official website of the Demo Day and REGISTER NOW!
