The first batch of the program commenced in December 2024 and will run up to March 2025. The program will culminate in a grand Demo Day during the Baltic Edtech Week, where startups will have the opportunity to pitch their solutions to an exclusive network of experts and investors.

"EdTech solutions have the power to revolutionise education, while also contributing to the broader innovation ecosystem and enhancing Lithuania's global competitiveness,” said Karolina Urbonaitė, Head of Startup Lithuania. “This is a golden opportunity for startups to bring their ideas to life and move forward." 

The program kicked off on 6 December with discussions on opportunities in EdTech, strategy sessions, interactive activities, and stories from startup journeys. The first 13 startups selected to the program are: mOintellect, elicėjus, Persikas.com, RampReady, EditAI, CoFive, RedTail, The C School, Mokslink, BrAIn Club, Techi Education, Kaip sekasi?, LithuaniaTech.

We are excited to see the innovative ideas and collaborations that will emerge from this program. This initiative aims to establish Lithuania as the premier destination for EdTech innovations.
