Bilbao Campus Experience (BCE) 2026

The EIT Food Bilbao Campus Experience (BCE) is a post-accelerator programme for agrifood startups, designed to help them scale and access the Basque, Spanish, and European markets.

It offers a 3–4 week immersive experience in Bilbao, hosted at the B Accelerator Tower (BAT), combined with tailored mentoring and continued remote support. The programme focuses on providing individualised support, enabling startups to address specific growth challenges and connect directly with industry stakeholders, including companies, investors, and potential partners. 

Through a mix of targeted training, networking activities, and personalised guidance, participants strengthen their market readiness and expand their business opportunities within the agrifood ecosystem.

Additionally, the programme offers financial support for travel and accommodation, as well as potential funding opportunities to support company creation and early-stage development in the Basque Country.
