Launch International Accelerator: Demo Day Showcase Summer 2026
We’re excited to invite you to celebrate the inaugural cohort of our Launch International Accelerator at their Demo Day Showcase!
Join us for an energizing afternoon of student entrepreneurship, global innovation, and community as 6 student venture teams return from three weeks of intensive programming across Luxembourg, Germany, and Belgium to share what they’ve built, and where they’re headed.
Over the course of the program, students completed a week-long startup bootcamp at the University of Luxembourg’s Belval Campus anchored in Ted Zoller’s 6M Framework, then traveled through Brussels, Cologne, and Aachen, pitching at startup competitions, visiting leading innovation hubs, and engaging with founders and investors across the European ecosystem. Demo Day is the culmination of that journey: an opportunity to hear their pitches, connect with emerging student entrepreneurs, and celebrate alongside the North Carolina innovation community.
Presentations will begin promptly at 2:30 p.m.
