About this opportunity
Silicon Allee at Fraunhofer HHI runs a full-time, founder-first deep tech accelerator in Berlin, backed by the Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute, for early-stage, pre-funded startups growing from MVP to €1M. It covers the founding team's salaries for up to 12 months, gives access to Fraunhofer HHI's research labs, researchers and IP, plus Berlin workspace, hands-on mentoring and Silicon Allee's startup network, with no licensing fees and a clean cap table through virtual shares (about 10%). It looks for teams based in Berlin or open to relocating, with two or more founders including strong technical skills, working on deep tech in fields such as AI, photonics, 6G and visual computing, with no prior equity investment and some early market validation (customers, pilots or LOIs). It is not a fit for solo founders or idea-stage projects. Core topics currently accepting applications include Photonic Sensors and Tuning the Mind of AI.
