MyCo.DS in Detail
Some of the key topics:
01
Start-ups
With our mentoring service, we help start-ups position themselves for entry into the security and defence sector and prepare them, for example by participating in certain accelerators.
02
Scale-ups
We advise scale-ups with the most detailed analysis possible of your growth strategy in the security and defence sector. The aim of the mentoring is to identify specific and systemic problems that need to be solved to achieve maximum growth in the security and defence sector in the following two years. To do this, the relevant key areas and challenges are identified and measures are taken.
03
Incubators
To realize a start-up and to give the start-up the right momentum, there are now also a number of incubators in the security and defence sector. We help start-ups find the right defence incubator.
04
Accelerators
The national and international accelerators in the security and defence sector help participants to prepare themselves for business, for example with the Bundeswehr.
Our mentoring and consulting helps them to make this process as sustainable and profitable as possible.
05
Let the journey begin.
What’s up next …
For scale-ups, we offer an initial workshop that focuses and intensively examines whether the company is “Fit for Defence”. The first part of the workshop is an analysis, on the basis of which the planning and preparations for a successful entry into the defence and security sector are defined in a second step.
