How to join the Project

Ways to collaborate within the Competition and beyond

Members of the academic, research and industry community are invited to join PROMETHEUS, acting as associated partners, experts / mentors and business angels. Through the platform, you can also express business needs and / or societal challenges for startup teams to resolve.

If you want to participate as a mentor or business angel, please follow the procedure through the PROMETHEUS Entrepreneurship Acceleration Platform:

Mentors / Experts

The mentor is an unpaid assistant in shaping an idea. The mentors provide academic / business experience and come from the consortium partners or they are external. See other mentors here.

Business Angels

An angel is a private investor or business that supports an idea, financing it or providing an important service or resource for its implementation, at a very early stage.

Business Angels

Supporters and sponsors are individuals or organisations inside or outside the consortium that may support an idea or competition. See other supporters / sponsors here.
