Lanzadera

Lanzadera is a startup accelerator and incubator founded in 2013 and promoted by Juan Roig, the president of Mercadona. Based in Valencia, Spain, it is part of the Marina de Empresas business hub. Lanzadera's mission is to support entrepreneurs by providing them with training, mentorship, and resources to build efficient companies and solid business models, based on Roig's "Total Quality Model". The program offers different phases for startups at various stages of maturity. While Lanzadera itself focuses on acceleration, financial investment for the startups is often provided by its sister entity, Angels Capital. Some programs include an initial loan of up to €200,000 without the company taking equity.
