Overview

Startup Spark is an innovative project created at the Łódź Special Economic Zone S.A. in cooperation with a team experienced in acceleration, which aims to connect creative startups with the infrastructure and resources of large enterprises. In addition to standard forms of support (funding, mentors), we give startups access to high-level specialists, organized into production teams, so that the best practices of startup studios (venture builders) are translated into an accelerator program. The model created, in 2017-2018, received funding of over PLN 5.5 million in the Scale UP competition under the government's Start In Poland program. Since January 2019, it has been implementing another gas pedal project - Startup Spark 2.0 with funding of nearly PLN 15 million!
