Our Launchpads.

Wellstreet launchpads

We designs programs to train the entrepreneurs of the future, support them in building scalable and sustainable companies, for the long term, by offering state of the art educational resources, mentoring from industry experts and Wellstreet’s network, themed sessions, like UX/UI Design, Product Management, Growth & Marketing and much more. The aim of these programs are to scale Wellstreet's expertise in building successful technology companies. We train the entrepreneurs of the future, support them in validating their products and target markets, and testing value propositions and business models, to build scalable and sustainable companies, for the long term.

Who can participate?

Portfolio: Wellstreet is an early stage VC, our program in partnership with Google for Startups is geared towards our portfolio companies.

Guests: we offer “Guest Passes” with the aim of inviting and giving back to the startup community. We also use these to validate deal flow and make it an opportunity to demonstrate our proactive approach.

Support: we also leverage the partnership to support key strategic events and initiatives, such as the opening of our Hub in Gothenburg or when we curated a Launchpad Event for underrepresented founders through our partner initiative Shift.

What do participants get?

Events: we conduct around 4 events per year, each one including 1 or 2 days of content, with additional mentoring hours before and following the event.
Benefits: because participants are our portfolio companies or companies that we are looking into making an investment in, we can curate the content to a very high degree and make it relevant “now” at all stages of growth.
Competitive advantage: through Google for Startups, we give our companies the best chance of success - it's a competitive advantage, giving them access to mentors and an international network.
Network access: our events allow us to bring the best of our network together with all our portfolio companies and the community.
Method: each event comprises a collection of sessions: workshops, fireside chats, technical training and mentoring 1-on-1s.
Access to Google offerings:
we also promote and encourage our portfolio and entrepreneurial network to attend Google’s open calls (Google Startup School Sessions, Google Sales Academy, Applications to Google Incubator and Accelerator programs, Lectures etc).

What our companies say.

Lars-Ola Hahlin
Founder of Pensure

It was impressive to hear a person talk about a business he does not know at all and still is able to say so many good things. Greg gave us confidence to try a few new things.

Anna Nordström
CEO of Pixery Media

Google Launchpad is a great format for ensuring continuous insights, inspiration and food for thought on the growth journey. The recurring opportunity to focus on different aspects of a growing business under the guidance of experienced mentors and together with other founders is very valuable.

Lisen Zethraeus
(at that time) CMO, DanAds

The Google for Startups days have been highly useful for us and the different types of sessions has made it relevant across our organisation with team members from different levels and functions participating. I personally especially enjoyed the assigned mentorship sessions.

Erik Estberg
Co-founder Gamifiera

I believe the Google Sales Academy training was one of the best group sessions we have had. Previous to this the best sessions have been the 1-on-1s. Sales process is very interesting and also complex and less intuitive from my background. I believe it was really great!
