APPLICATION FORM
Applications are open to startups and early-stage business ideas from both the Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot communities. Su4P is a bi-communal accelerator. We welcome applications from startups at any stage, from both communities, with a business idea that has real growth potential.

The programme runs from September to November 2026, culminating in the Su4P Pitch Battle and international exposure at Web Summit Lisbon. The top three teams share €20,000 in seed funding. Selected teams also enter the eunite investor pathway — direct access to an active angel investor network for those ready to raise.

Applications close on 10 August 2026. Read the full programme guidelines before applying. https://startups4peace.eu/
