MuckerLab is a mentorship-driven, pre-seed startup accelerator focused on working with a small number of exceptional technology entrepreneurs to help them launch and scale their businesses through collaborative ideation, productization, go-to-market, marketing, user acquisition, sales, legal guidance, and fundraising.

Over the years, we’ve been been expanding our events to visit more countries across the world and are frequently asked to travel to new cities by ambitious entrepreneurs.

We know how much it takes to set up and run a business and we want to make it easier for all the incredible global talent out there to meet with us by setting up Online Office Hours. It’s your chance to meet with our Investment Team, discuss your business and receive feedback from our in-house experts.

What can I expect from Seedcamp Online Office Hours?
Seedcamp will select 12 startups who’ll receive a 15 min slot for a one-to-one conference call with our Investment Team. It’s a unique opportunity to discuss your business directly, before pre-seed applications close on 19th February and:
- Receive early feedback about your business
- Understand the areas of your business you may need to sharpen
- Discuss if you are eligible to receive pre-seed or seed investment from Seedcamp

What happens next?
The conference calls will be scheduled on Monday 13th February, with one of the 3 Investment Team members at Seedcamp. We will announce the exact time slot for each selected company by the end of Thursday 9th February.

Please note:
This is an application to sign-up for Online Office Hours that will take place remotely.
This is *not* an application for an investment, but a great opportunity to get in front of the investment team ahead of applications closing on 19th February 2017.
To apply for pre-seed investment please go to http://seedcamp.com/apply-to-seedcamp.

-Application Process-

Submit Application- This is the first step and typically the most frustrating for Founders because it can feel like a black box. Don't worry, we don't use robots. One or more of our leadership team considers each application in detail to determine whether there is a fit. If there isn’t, we will let you know quickly.

Screening Meeting- OK! So you made it past the application and are on a roll. This is where we get to know you and your company. We are honest and, at times, very direct, with a well honed BS meter. Most of the time it's very clear what next steps look like at the end of this meeting.

Whiteboard Session- This is where we discuss how to empower your greatness. This includes but is not limited to capital investment, other resources and suggested additions to the team. You should come with a high-level plan and be prepared for an active conversation. During this meeting we typically bring in industry experts that align with the problem you're solving. The end result is a comprehensive plan on how to move forward.

SSD Partners Meeting- Subject to the outcome of the Whiteboard Session, the SSD team gets together to discuss capital requirements and other internal/ external resources needed to make the plan happen. This will form the basis for our offer and includes all SSD obligations.

What to Expect

Flashpoint is an Atlanta-based, four month long program, divided into two parts, and ending in demo days in several cities. The first six weeks is a concentrated on-site program, usually involving three lectures or workshops per week, weekly critiqued team presentations, weekly office hours, and a weekly speaker series, in addition to numerous interactions with potential customers. The following 10 weeks includes ongoing lectures, workshops, and office hours, but can be conducted off-site. Innovation teams from larger companies work alongside startups in the same program, for example a Coca-Cola team is in the current cohort. See this article in Forbes or this talk by founder Merrick Furst to learn about program content.

Financial Considerations

Flashpoint requires accepted startups to be or convert to US C- Corporations. Invited startups receive a $20k investment as a SAFE, from an independent fund (created, in part, by successful companies developed at flashpoint.) In addition, flashpoint purchases 7% of company stock.

Our five level process moves companies to new value-inflection points in their life-cycle. In addition, companies can receive up to $100,000 of financing, over $1,000,000 of in-kind services, and access to the resources necessary to build your business. Connect with and leverage 250+ domain experts with vast knowledge and business experience.
