Five startups working across agriculture, food, nutrition and health are selected each year for this primarily onsite accelerator, coordinated from Basel and structured around weekly workshops, excursions and expert meetings over roughly 13 weeks, closing with a final award ceremony. Participation is free of charge and takes no equity and no success fees. Rather than cash, each selected startup receives CHF 10,000 in vouchers for in-kind expert services, which can be split between several service partners.
