On Monday the teams went through Seedprep, where the founders presented their startup to the Seedcamp team and the rest of the founders for feedback. It’s an important day as on Tuesday they were pitching in front of a room full of Europe’s top Tier-1 investors.

Today they’ll meet with over 100 experienced Seedcamp mentors and receive valuable feedback on their startups; from team structure, to product, to business model, to branding and beyond. (Have a read of our day-by-day report of February’s Seedcamp Week London for a fuller account of what they’ll be up to.)

Seedcamp Week Berlin wouldn’t be what it is without the help of our amazing sponsors and partners, so we’d like to extend a special thank-you to Google For Entrepreneurs, Amazon Web Services, PayPal Developer, PWC, SendGrid, Capital Accelerator Programme, and the European Regional Development Fund, as well as hub:raum who have been hosting us throughout the week.

We’ll be announcing the teams selected to receive our investment and an invitation into the Seedcamp family soon, but until then…
