Startups Selected for Investment-Focused Acceleration Program

in4startups, founded by Ahmet Sefa Bir and Şerafettin Özsoy, has officially launched its own investment-focused acceleration program. The selected startups were announced during the kick-off meeting and signing ceremony held to mark the program’s launch.

Startups selected for the program will undergo detailed analyses before being connected with corporate partners and investors. With the support of partner law and financial advisory firms, the entire investment process will be managed from A to Z. The goal is to help startups reach investors as quickly as possible and streamline the overall investment process.

A Structured Investment Journey

In the first phase, startups will be analyzed through the in4startups digital platform. The scope of this evaluation includes:

• Business model analysis
• Startup analysis
• Entrepreneur analysis
• Legal fundamentals assessment
• Financial assessment
• Valuation analysis

As part of market validation, startups will be matched with representatives of potential corporate partners they could collaborate or sell to. The feedback from these meetings will be recorded in the system by the in4startups team as part of each startup’s detailed evaluation.

Following the analysis, agreed valuations and equity offers will be shared with individual and institutional investors on the in4startups platform. Startups and interested investors will then be matched to accelerate the investment process.
