AI ACCELERATOR: Pre-Application Masterclass with Mentors

Kolmapäev, 17. september kell 10:00 - 13:00

Saturn, Teaduspargi 6/1, Tehnopol campus

On September 17th, we invite all AI-focused startups to join the Tehnopol Startup Incubator AI Accelerator pre-event.

A new application round for the AI Accelerator opens on September 15th. During the pre-event, participants will receive a comprehensive overview of the registration process and the application form, as well as insights into how startups will be evaluated and selected.

You’ll also hear an inspiring keynote from Kristjan Jansons, CEO of MindTitan, an Estonian startup working with public and private organisations to solve complex business challenges with AI. Having led more than 100 AI projects, Kristjan has developed valuable intuition about what makes or breaks an initiative and will share his perspective on taking an AI project from start to finish. He will also explore how the AI landscape has changed in just a few years with the rise of large language models, and how founders should approach AI development today.

After the presentation, 30 companies will have the unique opportunity to join one-on-one mentoring sessions with top Estonian AI experts. These personalized meetings will help validate ideas, assess program fit, and evaluate the feasibility of project plans within the program timeframe. Even if you’re not among the 30 selected for mentoring, you can still benefit from the keynote, expand your knowledge, and connect with the community during the event.
