Get ready to apply
Built only from what this listing states.
A long application, by our reading.
1. What to get ready
The listing does not say what it needs. When you open their page, write down everything it asks for before you start.
2. Dates
- No closing date is stated.
- Openings with no closing date can close once they have enough people, so sooner is safer. Our advice

The download is a small text file. You can read it later without data. It also lists each condition they set, so you can tick yourself against them. WhatsApp sends the same list to you, or to somebody helping you.

Tips for applying for an accelerator
General advice from us, the same for every accelerator. It is not what this organisation says; that is above.
- Check whether they take a share of your business, and how much. It is shown under the facts when the listing says.
- Show traction: customers, sales, users, growth, even small.
- Say plainly what problem you solve, for whom, and why your team.
If there is an interview or a test
- Practise a two minute pitch and a longer five minute one.
- Expect hard questions about your market and competitors. It is normal.
All our tips and messages to copy. Practise answering, with nothing kept. Received an offer? Check whether it is real, then read before you say yes.
How to apply
You apply on ESA BIC Sweden's own website, not here. We never send an application for anybody and we never ask you for anything to pass on. Check their page for anything not shown here.
