LaunchBox 2020: Applications are open!

Posted on: 05 February 2020

Applications are open to LaunchBox, Tangent’s Student Accelerator. Now in its eighth year, LaunchBox is a great opportunity for Trinity students who have an early-stage idea for a business or social enterprise and want to take it to the next level.

Successful student teams who are accepted on to the programme will receive no-equity €10K in funding; access to an elite structured programme with experts, founders, and experienced investors; and co-working space in Tangent for the duration of the programme.

Previous LaunchBox startups include Artomatix, which recently sold for over €60m; FoodCloud, a social enterprise that partners with Tesco and others to reduce food waste and provide meals to charities; and TouchTech payments which was acquired by Stripe in 2019. LaunchBox is open to students from all different disciplines and backgrounds. Applications will close on 14 February @ 12 noon.
