Consulting, Mentoring & Coaching

External expertise and experience are essential for a successful startup.Our startup consultants and our entire network of coaches and academic mentors are available for this purpose.

Humboldt Startup Consultants

The Humboldt Startup Consultants of the Humboldt Startupservice are the central contact persons for all matters concerning startups. They conduct initial counselling interviews, make the decision on admission to the Humboldt Startup Programme and provide intensive and trustworthy support to the teams during the Prepare and Launch phases.

Humboldt Mentors

Professors from the Humboldt University of Berlin are available to assist the founding teams as academic mentors, particularly within the framework of the EXIST and BSS funding programmes. In this way, the teams benefit from the innovative know-how from university research and gain access to the university (founding) infrastructure. The startup portfolio lists all past and present mentors organized by teams.

Coaches

The coaching platform of the Berlin University Alliance offers founding teams a network of evaluated coaches and experts who offer special conditions in compliance with defined requirements. The conditions and requirements are summarized in a guideline. The startup support ensures a regular evaluation process.
