The IFB InnovationsStarter program includes a range of public funding initiatives for innovative startups in the greater Hamburg area. The program is funded by the city of Hamburg as well as the European Union's EFRE fund and stretches from pre-seed subsidies to seed-stage co-investments of up to € 1.5 million with the goal of enabling and accelerating growth of highly innovative startups.
As IFB Innovationsstarter GmbH, we provide financial support to promising companies and strengthen the local start-up scene by promoting technology-oriented start-ups and young, innovative companies in Hamburg.
Today, we are proud to announce that Zive has been awarded a membership in the InnoFounder program which supports startups with a lump-sum of up to € 75.000. The process for achieving the membership involved a strict application process including a live presentation in front of an investment committee. We are extremely proud to receive this membership as it is also a strong validation for our product vision and value proposition.
What's next for Zive?
As we are accelerating our growth in the German-speaking region we seek a rapid expansion to other international markets to position Zive as a global player for AI-powered knowledge management and search. We feel that the market and demand are quickly expanding with more and more businesses realizing the huge potential of combining company data with generative AI. On the product side we are continuing our path towards a fully automated knowledge management solution, allowing businesses to leverage the full potential of the knowledge that already sits within the company without any extra work.
