The Boldbrain accelerator offers 20 new start-ups a three-month coaching program. The best ten of them will compete for six prizes worth CHF70k at the final event on 3 December.

After completing the acceleration process that started on September 4, the 20 innovative projects selected for Boldbrain 2020 were evaluated by the regional jury on Friday, November 20, at the Tecnopolo Ticino in Manno, home to the Agire Foundation. During the 3‐month acceleration phase, the twenty teams were able to develop and refine their initial idea through the five workshops organised by Boldbrain, and thanks to the support of coaches who accompanied them in the development of their projects.
