What is Red Brick?

 

Red Brick offers intensive coaching and mentoring for your idea and early-stage startup. Our goal is to support development of your idea from idea stage to your first customer.

 

Programs

 

Learn more about the Pre-Accelerator and the Red Brick Accelerator. Both programs are online and 100% equity-free.

 

When and where?

Both programs run twice a year: during spring and autumn. Our programs are entirely online – making it possible for you to participate from anywhere!

However, we are located in Platform 6 startup house in Tampere. Many of our teams take advantage of the free pre-startup space the Dock there and participate events in the house too. Also our Demo Days and some open workshops are in person.

Team selection

10-15 teams are going to be selected after the application and individual interview process.

 

Tuomas Ilander, Co-Founder at Blokgarden

“We only had a crazy company idea when we entered RBA, but in six weeks we came out with a MVP, an established company and first customers.”

Joonas Heinonen, Founder at Pikadev

“Workshops and help from Red Brick Accelerator was really valuable to us. After the accelerator ended, we had a lot of things to do and ways to do those, thanks to the RBA.”

Csaba Ortutay, Founder at Absenses

“We have arrived to Red Brick Accelerator only with our project. Thanks to the great program, we were able to develop our idea to the next level. With the help of the mentors we have developed it to an excellent business opportunity.”

Anthony Vanoostendorp, founder at Mohavi Creative

“Red Brick was a great experience. It helped us validate our business model further and clear focus on further actions . We met many great mentors from different fields.”
