Batch Meetup #3

CASSINI Business Accelerator | September 26, 2024

As the heat of June started settling in, Batch 3 startups of the CASSINI Business Accelerator programme all headed to Prague for the CASSINI Entrepreneurship Days, followed by a 3-day retreat in the lakes of Kouty in the Czech Republic.

Batch Meetup Exercise

During the CASSINI Entrepreneurship Days, organised by the European Union Agency for the Space Program (EUSPA) startups, investors, entrepreneurs, and the EUSpace ecosystem came together to network, pitch, win awards, and gain invaluable insights about business management in the space-tech industry. 

Batch Meetup Group Exercise

After this two-day event, all Batch 3 startups from the CASSINI Business Accelerator took off to Kouty for further networking, team-building and business training. Mornings began with jogs through the forest, followed by tailored workshops focusing on key areas such as pitching techniques, stress management, and embracing failure. These sessions were interspersed with hands-on problem-solving exercises and open discussions by the pond.

Evenings were reserved for informal gatherings, where participants shared stories and experiences around a campfire, strengthening the bonds within the batch. This relaxed atmosphere encouraged meaningful conversations and the formation of lasting relationships.

Batch 3 Campfire

Batch 3 and the team of CASSINI Business Accelerator left with excitement for the upcoming months and hope that this experience will lead to long term partnerships and business cooperations.
