Intel is looking for exceptional deep-tech start-ups to join its Ignite accelerator in Germany next month.
Intel Ignite, the early-stage start-up programme built by Intel, is coming to Munich in April. A select 10 start-ups will participate in the 12-week programme, which will offer mentorship from both Intel and industry experts.
The first Intel Ignite programme ran in Tel Aviv. The programme has cycled through three cohorts in the Israeli city so far, and has seen graduate start-ups raise a combined $200m.
The programme targets start-ups at pre-Series A stage and Zack Weisfeld, general manager and head of Ignite, said the selection process is “rigorous”. To date, more than 600 start-ups have applied and just 28 have been accepted.

TEL AVIV, Israel, Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/
ARMO, developers of a pioneering platform that inherently secures cloud-native workloads with in-memory protection coupled with built-in visibility and control, today announced its launch out of stealth having secured $4.5 million in seed funding, from Pitango First. The company plans to use the funds to expand its go-to-market efforts and commercial offering of its technology.
The growing adoption of cloud technologies by enterprise companies has accelerated the use of Kubernetes as the de-facto containers orchestration platform. However, this provides limited visibility, control and poor security of cloud-native workloads. Existing solutions such as side cars and emerging eBPF-based systems fail to deliver a seamless and secure runtime environment.
