THE MISSION
The signals pre-seed programme offers founders, who are in the early stages of forming a company, the opportunity to validate their start-up ideas within the framework of our Founder Fellowship. If successfully validated, the startup idea is eligible to receive financing up to 250T€ via an early stage investment. Throughout the process, founders are supported by the signals Venture Development Team as well as a network of mentors and experts. The pre-seed program is one of the latest activities of signals, an independent digital initiative of the SIGNAL IDUNA Group. Thus, the innovative ecosystem also offers the opportunity to enter into strategic partnerships with Signal Iduna and other network partners. In addition, follow-up financing may be possible through the affiliated venture capital fund.
