The Merck Accelerator is looking for collaboration-ready startups in Bio-Sensing & Interfaces, Clean Meat, and Liquid Biopsy Technologies, as well as in our company’s core areas: Healthcare, Life Sciences, and Performance Materials. Come to our headquarters and you may even get the chance to extend your stay at our Innovation Hub in China. 
Apply now and let’s go!

Applications for the next intake of the Merck Accelerator Program have officially opened! The company is looking for up to 12 collaboration-ready startups in their key areas to benefit from Merck’s extensive experience in reaching collaborations and partnerships with startups. For example, 90 percent of the startups that graduated April from the last Merck Accelerator intake are either already collaborating or in negotiations to partner up with Merck. It’s clear to see, therefore, that the program that takes place at the Innovation Center based at the leading science & technology company’s headquarters in Germany is much more than an accelerator—it is a “collaboration-maker” for startups that are looking to make their first deals.

Partner up and accelerate your business
The three-month program focuses on co-development and creation of sustainable business partnerships, focusing very much on the Innovation Fields of the Merck Innovation Center. For example, those startups working on biosensing & interfaces will benefit from extensive expertise in Merck´s therapeutic areas as well as advanced materials, whereas those working on innovative and next generation liquid biopsy solutions will benefit not only from the company’s expertise in reagents, kits and the latest technology, but also extensive biomarker knowledge and a deep understanding of disease biology. These are just some examples of the possibilities such a leading science & technology company has to offer, but you may want to hear what other startups say about the program:
