Introducing FTMO Spring Batch of 2021

We are happy to reveal our Batch 2021! It was not an easy choice, but we've once again selected 9 startups for this year’s accelerator program. Who are the 9 new star(tup)s of the FTMO?

Fast Track Malmö is an accelerator that helps European startups to accelerate their growth and raise their first VC round. We have one batch per year with 7-10 companies who join the program from March to May.

This year has been tough to pick the batch for Fast Track Malmö. We’ve received almost 400 applications from all around the world. And we were impressed by the quality - as over half of the applications were from startups that already had a product with active users.

The 2021 batch of the Fast Track Malmö accelerator program has a great mix of startups from health tech, artificial intelligence and climate impact to financial tech and community growth.

Looking at the geography of our Batch 2021, we can state that five of the startups are Swedish, two are from the UK and others are from Norway and Denmark. But the true diversity lies in the fact that 45% of the startups have a female co-founder, we are happy to continue our work and aim to be industry leaders when it comes to women in accelerators.

The startups will get dedicated mentors  - FTMO Co-Leads - Nino Subotic and Melinda Elmborg, to challenge and support them in business development. FTMO accelerator program has other coaches who provide specific support in financing, tech, growth, team development and much more. They also gain access to FTMO’s community of VC’s, founders and experts all across Europe.
