Share

With the launch of the new cycle of the egg Start-Up platform, egg - enter-grow-go enters its tenth (10th) year of presence in the Greek startup scene through Eurobank. Thus, it further expands its footprint as the most recognized and integrated business acceleration framework in Greece.

Egg, designed and implemented incollaboration with Corallia of E.K. Athena, since 2013, to support innovative entrepreneurship in Greece. It multidimensionally supports participants seeking: extroversion, business networking and funding.

At the same time, it contributes to the effective interconnection of the academic, business and investment community in the country. In the 10th cycle, leveraging its experience and modern structure, egg upgrades and intensifies the guidance of the business groups that will join. The aim is thus to speed up the implementation of their business plans.

Crucial to maximizing the benefit for participants is their inclusion, depending on the stage of maturity/readiness of their business plan, in appropriate business acceleration cohorts, within the egg Start-Up platform, with corresponding business milestones (milestones) and advisory monitoring within the framework of the Program. The aim is to identify their real needs. Also to seek synergies with other participants as members of a development "ecosystem". In this way they will increase the chances of funding.

Michalis Vlastarakis, General Manager of Marketing & Corporate Communication of Eurobank Group and Chairman of the Egg Coordinating Committee

"Constantly improving and upgrading its structures and services, egg is entering its tenth year of operation. Contributing to the expansion of the Greek ecosystem of innovative businesses, it has already supported more than 1,000 entrepreneurs. While he has contributed to the creation of 150 companies. Eurobank, a pioneer in supporting new entrepreneurship, treats as a priority the development of innovation based on international standards. We invest in the egg. We support every dynamic development initiative that is also developed through the State. As is the establishment of the Collaborative Innovation Scheme in the Tourism & Culture Sectors for the modernization of the Greek tourist and cultural product".
