Details

In the 3rd episode of our season 2 we feel thrilled to present Atlantic Labs, one of the most successful early stage VC in Berlin's tech scene. You may not be familiar with their name, but what if I tell you they were the early investor of SoundCloud, GetYourGuide, Omio and Gorillas?

Atlantic Labs and Food Labs are an early stage investor and venture studio that thrives in an environment daring to challenge the status quo. They work at the sweet spot where market opportunities and inspiring entrepreneurs meet. There are many great ideas out there, but it takes bold and mission-driven people to turn them into reality. People who overcome all sorts of obstacles on their way to success. People who don’t give up. People who aren’t scared of failing, while attempting to achieve greatness. Their mission and daily job is to find and support those founders and together overcome the toughest entrepreneurial challenges. They team-up with the founders early, providing the capital, tools and network necessary to kick-start and grow their companies. They are loyal partners on the exciting entrepreneurial journey that lies ahead of them.

In this webinar we'd introduce you the Atlantic Founder Associate program, a one year internship program during which you would work at Atlantic Labs' 3 portolio ventures and receive mentoring from Atlantic Labs' VC core team. It suits aspiring entrepreneurs who'd like to work at the heartland of Europe's digital economy but don't feel you are quite there yet to be a founder now.
