Well-being
We help founders take care of themselves and their businesses.
Sustainable enterprises are built on balance
Founding a business is demanding, and founders are typically full of passion and drive. That’s also where the danger lies: entrepreneurs tend to work long hours and are exposed to high levels of stress. This affects both personal well-being and business performance. We care both about the (mental) health of our founders and about their businesses. That is why we created a well-being program to help founders manage the demands of entrepreneurship and keep their lives in balance.
Well-being Academy days for all startups in the program
Our program combines various initiatives that seek to improve the overall health of the founders and their team. It's shaped primarily by the needs of the founders and resources of Start it @KBC and its partners. When you join our one-year accelerator program, you get access to Academy sessions on well-being topics such as:
