Participating in the Angel Incubator was an enriching experience for me. Particularly exciting was the exchange with experienced angels and the insights into their individual investment strategies. The regular contact with other participants as well as with BACB members also offered the opportunity to expand one’s own network with potential co-investors.
In combination with the very high-quality content delivered, I can warmly recommend this program.

Who is the Angel Incubator for?
The Angel Incubator is aimed at all those who want to become business angels or refresh their knowledge.
What can I expect at the Angel Incubator?
In 6 peer-learning sessions with experienced angel investors, you learn all the important things from the world of business angels. In 5 accompanied startup calls and during the 2 Pitching Days, we put theory into practice. You not only gain practical experience, but also take away exciting insights and great conversations with other angels, startups, and network partners. At the end of the program, during the 2-day Angel Camp, you receive everything again – compactly in the form of panels, workshops, and keynotes – that you need as a successful business angel.
When do I need to plan how much time?
From February 24th to May 5th, we will launch the Angel Incubator 2026. The peer-learning sessions take place every 2 weeks and will each take 2 hours. The 5 startup intro calls take place between the sessions and, including preparation and follow-up, last about 1.5 hours each. The Angel Camp will occupy 2 full days in April. The Pitching Days are scheduled for approximately 3 hours on site each. More details about the schedule can be found in the preliminary program.
Do I have to live in Berlin for the Angel Incubator?
Yes and no. The peer-learning sessions and startup calls take place online, but the 2 days of the Angel Camp are on-site. Even though you can follow the Pitching Days via live stream, we also recommend attending on-site.
