Hi! 👋 How can
we help?

If you submit an application after the deadline, your application is automatically tagged as “late”. You will still get evaluated based on your merits, but late applications are generally competing for fewer slots, which means it will get harder to get accepted the later you apply. It will also take longer for us to get back to you, as the process is already ongoing. 

Yes. Many startups in our programs have raised pre-seed or seed funding. What matters most is whether Sting can help you reach your next major milestone faster.

Applications are open several times a year. Simply visit sting.co and select the program you’re interested in. Each application includes a question form, an opportunity to upload your pitch deck, and an optional short video. Selected startups are invited to pitch to our selection committee.

Propel Capital typically ends up with 1.5% to 3.5% ownership, depending on your startup’s valuation at the time of conversion. The final percentage is calculated based on the terms of your next qualified financing round.

Propel Capital gives you exposure to a curated portfolio of Sting-supported startups, with the option to invest further. Contact us to learn more about the structure and how to get involved.

Startups accepted to Sting Core have the opportunity to receive SEK 600,000 in an investment through a convertible note from Propel Capital, the investment company linked to Sting. The investment is optional and offered to selected companies early in the program based on clear selection criteria.
