PATH 01 · A GLOBAL ACCELERATION PROGRAM
HER Global Acceleration
A tailored acceleration program that gets you ready for new markets
Two workstreams, one team. We work alongside you on strategy and on your behalf in-market, activating the partners, investors and events that matter for your growth.
WHAT IT IS
A program with six core deliverables
A personalised, one-on-one acceleration programme built around where your business is now, where you want to go, and the market you are preparing to enter.
MRL Diagnostic and Focus
Baseline score across Business, Tech and Market readiness, and the outcome your roadmap focuses on: revenue, investment, or a mix.
Custom Roadmap
A prioritised action plan tailored to your MRL level, sector and target market.
2× Sessions / Month
Two 2-hour working sessions each month with your assigned lead partner and expert.
Monthly Report with Pipeline
Progress against the roadmap delivered in writing, so nothing depends on memory.
Post-Program Action Plan
Clear next steps for you after we hand off with the leads we've opened still available.
End-of-Program Summary
Final scorecard, learnings, warm referrals into partners and investors.
How we deliver
From Market Readiness to Market Activation
You get ready for the market first. Only then do we activate it with you, for growth, for investment, or both.
Step 01
Market Readiness
We start with your MRL diagnostic and close the gaps it reveals: how to enter, position and show up with credibility in the market you're targeting.
Step 02
Market Activation
Once you're ready, we map and activate the right contacts on your behalf, opening the doors that are hardest to open from the outside. Activation focuses on what you need most:
Ready to Grow
For founders seeking clients, pilots, distribution and partners: market entry strategy, positioning, and the introductions we open on your behalf. All done and supported by our team.
Ready to Raise
For startups seeking investment: a verified data room, investor-ready pitch, and introductions to investors in your goal market.
EXPERTS ON THE GROUND
The people who open the market for you.
Every retainer is backed by a bench of in-market experts: operators, investors and connectors who already live in the rooms you want to enter. They advise on the roadmap, open the right doors, and travel with you when a mission activates.
YOUR INVESTMENT
Sized to your Market Readiness Level. Aligned to your intended outcomes.
One tailored monthly retainer sized to your MRL diagnostic. When your roadmap includes investment readiness, RaiseTalks partner fees are included in this same retainer. A success fee (3 to 8%) applies only to commercial deals we help close. Fees on investment you raise are intended to be covered by the investor. If looking for investment it includes 1 year subscription of RaiseTalks Learn more about RaiseTalks Trust
Typical range
€3,000 to €4,300 / month
Typical range is for a single-market track. Multi-market scope, MRL level and target-market difficulty adjust the final number, which is confirmed after your diagnostic and fixed in writing before we start. The success fee applies to commercial deals, such as contracts, pilots, distribution and partnerships, with parties we introduce, and scales inversely with the retainer. Investment-related fees are agreed separately and are intended to be covered by the investor.
WHAT COMES NEXT?
Take it to market: on a strategic mission.
The Program prepares you. The Mission puts you in the market. Program founders can join a HER Global Adventure mission, and the program supports you before, during and after it. Whether to join is a decision we make together, based on your progress and the opportunity in your target market.

Want to know where our profit goes?
Women are estimated to reinvest up to 90% of their income into their families, communities, and into others (Source: World Bank / World Economic Forum). We built HER Venture HUB the same way: to reinvest, not extract. 90% of our profit is reinvested into our social initiatives. This is our social pledge. As an impact-first social enterprise bootstrapped and run on a social economy model, we keep operations lean so more goes back into our impact. This is our enterprise ethos. And that is how we do the right thing and the smart thing.
