StartTech+ combines mentoring and training to help startups scale
The StartTech+ program is aimed at startups and emerging technology-based companies. Its approach is designed to strengthen business models, enhance management capabilities, and facilitate the scalability of the solutions developed by participating companies.
Over three months, companies work with a customized roadmap combining specialized training and one-on-one mentoring, tailored to the needs and maturity of each project. This third edition, co-financed by Digital Europe and the IAF, incorporated the Aragon Development Institute’s Management Model for Competitiveness and Innovation.
The program also included networking activities and guidance on identifying financing and investment options. The companies also took part in national events such as Al-Andalus Innovation and Valencia Digital Summit, with the aim of connecting with potential investors and other stakeholders in the entrepreneurial ecosystem.

The audience joined the discussion on the role of different stakeholders in turning an innovative idea into a business venture with growth potential.
The event concluded with a Meet&Greet between the accelerated companies and attendees from the innovation ecosystem. The thirteen companies now join the StartTechS Community, alongside participants from the 2024 and 2025 editions, a collaborative network offering targeted initiatives to continue supporting their projects.
