gridX goes to Silicon Valley

The German Accelerator program empowers German tech and life science startups to enter new markets. It is supported by the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Energy (BMWi). The locations Silicon Valley, New York, Cambridge and Singapore are world-leading innovation centers and create the foundation for an extensive network.

gridX has successfully qualified for the Silicon Valley program. It is specifically designed for mid- and late-stage startups that want to set the basis for rapid growth. It includes customized mentoring, access to an extensive network and a development plan tailored to the needs and objectives of each company.
