We have been accepted to the Google for Startups Cloud Programme.
The programme supports early-stage technology companies building on Google Cloud infrastructure. Acceptance requires a functioning product and an active web presence - not a pitch deck, not a founding team profile, but working software. The pre-funded tier is specifically designed for founders at the MVP stage who are already building in production.
For Seneca Aldwyn, this means our infrastructure costs are covered as we move through the commercial beta. Every euro of operational budget goes toward customer development rather than compute - which matters at a stage where we are customer-funded and every resource allocation is a choice.
It is also an external signal worth naming clearly. Google's startup evaluation team reviews applications globally. Being selected confirms that what we have built meets a technical bar that has nothing to do with who we know or which programmes we have participated in. The product stands on its own.
We are currently running our Commercial Beta Programme with photonics and deep-tech companies in the Kennispark ecosystem in Enschede. If your company is asking the same questions every month - what is our real cash runway, where is the money going, and why does it take three days to find out - we are building the platform to answer them.
Beta access is available for a limited number of companies in the Twente and Netherlands deep-tech cluster.
