The new Kiuas Accelerator Spring 23 batch is here!
We are happy to be presenting the 19 new startups that are participating in the Kiuas Accelerator this spring. Despite the current economic outlook, or because of it, the startup scene is looking to grow. Many who have already achieved success in their careers are now looking to commercialize their solutions through startups. No matter the situation, there is always a demand for great ideas and ways to do things better.
What we at Kiuas see is that the current trends reflect in the companies that apply to our programs. Entrepreneurs are clearly working on solutions for critical social and environmental problems that constantly make the news, for example, the healthcare crisis. Furthermore, the solutions to the problems are increasingly based on new technologies such as AI or Web3. It seems that the hype behind these technologies is about to be realized in new tools that tackle old and new arising problems.
So, what are the new startups like? Here are the 19 companies that we are going to work with for the next 10 weeks and beyond:
