Growth Navigator: Investment & Financing
What are your financing options, and how can you approach the right investors in a targeted way!
The Growth Navigator is a practice‑oriented growth program for startups that are already active on the market and want to shape their next growth step in a targeted way. The program is aimed at companies with initial market success that are facing strategic questions related to growth, scaling, or internationalization.
Each year, you can choose from four thematic blocks (Product–Market Alignment, Sales & Go‑to‑Market, Investment & Financing, and Operational Excellence & Organization). For each topic, you receive expert input, exchange ideas with other growth‑oriented founders, and participate in personal coaching sessions with our specialists.
In this sprint on investment and financing, you will discover your financing options and learn how to approach the right investors in a targeted way.
Apply for a spot and become a pro at securing investor funding.
