Mentoring Program

We are expecting startups from all over the world for our flagship incubation program. The strengths of the program are the colorful professional support, community building and the mentoring team of national and international experts.

Womenture

The Womenture project aimed to empower innovation agencies and accelerators to develop new joint services and activities within their initiatives, with the goal of boosting female entrepreneurship and expanding the participating ecosystem across Europe. The consortium partners were DEX IC, Tehnopol, and SpinLab – The HHL Accelerator.

NAK TechLab

As a professional partner, we cooperated with the Hungarian Chamber of Agriculture in various program elements of the country’s first agritech startup program. Its aim was nothing less than the digitization of the sector. Innovative solutions increased the competitiveness of Hungarian agriculture, while participating startups were able to enter the market more easily with the help of corporations involved in the program.

WEnnovate

The WEnnovate project was a collaborative effort to create new systems and solutions to address urgent, complex, and systemic challenges. The focus was on the transition to sustainable renewable energy and cross-sector activities in energy and digital innovations, aligned with the European Commission's energy directives.

X-Europe

In 2020 we joined a two-year long project called X-Europe. The aim of the program was to connect the innovation ecosystems of Western and Central-Eastern parts of the continent. The program helped companies that are based on scientific research and deep-tech innovation with various types of knowledge and a strong network. Our role was to pay special attention to startups of the Visegrad region.

Carpathian Basin Mentoring Program

The purpose of the Carpathian Basin Mentoring Program was to connect Hungarian small and large entrepreneurs in the region, thereby helping to develop a cohesive entrepreneurial community. Since 2016, the program of the Prime Minister’s Office State Secretariat for Hungarian Communities Abroad, in which Design Terminal was a professional partner, reached more than 3,000 entrepreneurs.

HSUP

We are working with the National Innovation Agency to reform the Hungarian Startup University Program. HSUP is Hungary's first higher education-level startup program which aims to shape students' innovative approaches, inspire them to seek new ideas and channel them into the startup ecosystem. In two semesters, students will learn about the world of startups and gain practical knowledge on how to build a business, from idea phase and finance to legal and HR operations.
