We sat down with Rockstart's Michael Bjørnlund to discuss the accelerator's newest fund that focuses on emerging technologies, what unique benefits Rockstart offers above other accelerators, and why he'll be swimming to the firm's inaugural event this September. All this and more with Michael Bjørnlund!
Over the past decade, Amsterdam-HQ'd accelerator Rockstart has backed upwards of 280 startups, seen nine exits, and €150 million raised by portfolio companies culminating in an alumni value of approximately $1 billion.
Traditionally focusing on Energy and AgriFood startups, in April of this year the firm opened the application process for its newest fund, Emerging Tech.
We sat down with Rockstart's man at the helm for this fund, Michael Bjørnlund to define what exactly Rockstart views as emerging tech, what unique selling points Rockstart offers above and beyond other accelerators on the market today, and how and why he'll be swimming to Rockstart's inaugural event, Forward 2022 in September.
