More Business to More Startups

Bringing innovation to market is challenging, especially in B2B and B2G sales. Finding the right person, securing a meeting, and navigating long sales cycles can take months or even years.

This is where Ignite Sweden comes into play, matching your startup with corporate and public sector customers actively seeking innovative solutions like yours.

Startup Matchmaking That Leads to Real Business

Ignite Sweden helps startups connect with corporate and public sector customers through a targeted matchmaking process designed to create real business collaborations, with a track record of over 700 commercial deals. We provide structured support to startups through two core offerings:

Customer Validation Sprint

A curated matchmaking process where startups meet corporate and public sector customers based on their identified innovation needs. Startups are pre-selected by the established organizations and get a one-on-one 20-minute meeting to explore potential collaboration.

Collaboration Mastery

Support to help startups navigate corporate sales, improve negotiation skills, understand legal frameworks, and accelerate partnerships beyond the first meeting. Includes coaching, tailored workshops, and access to startup-friendly contracts and legal advice.
