AG Elevate accelerator programme for tech businesses opens for entries
International law firm Addleshaw Goddard (AG)has announced the opening of applications for its AG Elevate accelerator programme for scale-up businesses, providing ambitious tech companies with the opportunity to secure a package of tailored legal advice to help them grow at scale.
The 10-month programme provides growth-stage businesses with the opportunity to secure access to world-class legal advice, regular mentorship meetings and admission to AG’s global roster of seminars and networking events, many of which are attended by leading business executives, financiers and industry experts.
Since its inception in 2017, AG Elevate has supported the growth of over 60 businesses, tackling a wide range of legal and operational hurdles. Its alumni include an eclectic mix of tech start-ups spanning fintech, online consumer platforms, and innovators in sustainability, clean-tech and prop-tech.
Last year’s programme featured Protostars AI, an Irish business which leverages artificial intelligence to assist companies in navigating the complexities of the newly adopted EU Cyber Resilience Act.
Other local success stories from the programme include SymPhysis Medical, a Galway MedTech firm specialising in palliative care solutions, which secured further funding post-participation, and EpiCapture, a prostate cancer diagnostics company, which was successfully acquired.
Doreen Mescal, partner at Addleshaw Goddard Ireland (pictured), said: “Navigating the complex legal landscape can be a daunting task for start-ups and scale-ups alike. Through AG Elevate, we aim to demystify these challenges, leveraging the deep tech sector knowledge we have here in Ireland to support businesses in their growth journey. We’re in search of unique, driven tech companies with visionary leadership and a clear growth trajectory.”
Applications will be accepted from companies that are primarily based in either Ireland, the UK, France, Spain or Germany.
The deadline for applications to AG Elevate is end of July.
