Carbon13 Venture Accelerator

Run by Carbon13.

Carbon13's Venture Accelerator is built for climate and deeptech founders, structured as an eight-week sprint on the investment pitch followed by a twelve-month growth phase - roughly 60 weeks in total. Pre-seed investment of EUR 150,000 to EUR 250,000 comes through a SAFE targeting a 4-7% stake. Applicants must be UK- or EU-registered; the programme page does not name a delivery city, and Carbon13 Capital Limited's registered office is in Cambridge.
