B4i is an initiative of Bocconi University that acts as a catalyst for the most innovative and high potential ideas and startups in the European entrepreneurial ecosystem.

As a sector-agnostic accelerator, B4i welcomes startups from any industry to apply to both pre-acceleration and acceleration programmes.

Through the acceleration programme, B4i invests €80K into each startup in exchange for 4-6% equity. After completing the programme, startups join the portfolio.

For investment consideration in the acceleration programme, we look for some initial traction (first clients, letters of intent, or a strong community of early users), a strong Founder-Market fit, and how much the startup can benefit from the programme.

The B4i acceleration programme launched in March 2020, and since then, portfolio startups from our programs have raised more than €60 M💰 and created over 300 jobs 💼
