ASTP is pleased to share an exciting opportunity for innovative startups seeking to expand into the European market — the Poland Prize by Concordia Design Accelerator.

Based in Wroc?aw, Poland’s technological capital, Concordia Design Accelerator supports early-stage technology companies in scaling their businesses and entering new markets. The Poland Prize programme offers international startups a comprehensive “soft-landing” experience designed to help them establish and grow in Poland — one of Europe’s fastest-developing innovation hubs.

Startups selected for the programme will benefit from:

  • Up to €95,000 in equity-free funding

  • Full business and legal assistance for entering the Polish market

  • Access to mentors and experts from across Poland’s startup ecosystem

  • Market entry support to reach a domestic audience of over 38 million people

The deadline for applications is 15 November 2025.

Concordia Design Accelerator has an impressive record of supporting innovation, having collaborated with over 70 startups, facilitated more than 30 million PLN in grants, and built a network of 60+ partners and 20+ mentors. The programme places a strong focus on accelerating projects with positive social impact and helping startups succeed in Industry 4.0 and e-commerce sectors.

The initiative is part of the broader project “Concordia Design Accelerator – We turn ideas into human profit”, funded by the European Funds for a Modern Economy. Over five acceleration rounds, the programme aims to support 40 startups, ensuring that at least 85% successfully complete the acceleration process.
