Estonian Ministry of Defence (delivered by Tehnopol & Sparkup)
About this opportunity
Estonian MoD-funded pre-accelerator that helps early companies shape defence and dual-use solutions to real armed-forces needs; small grant plus mentoring.
The Defence Business Lab is a pre-accelerator funded by the Estonian Ministry of Defence and delivered by Tehnopol's startup incubator with Sparkup Tartu Science Park, created to widen the pool of Estonian companies working in defence and dual-use tech. Selected teams receive a small grant, structured training and mentoring to align an early solution with real armed-forces needs. Participation is Estonia-based, so a Ukrainian company needs an Estonian entity.
Eligibility
Pre-accelerator to grow the number of Estonian companies in defence/dual-use tech; participation is Estonia-based. A Ukrainian company would need an Estonian entity.
