Sometimes, one can easily be under the impression that innovations only come from Silicon Valley. We are convinced: It’s high time to change this perception. That’s why we started APX, the joint accelerator program of Axel Springer Digital Ventures and Porsche Digital. At APX, we believe in Europe – as fertile soil for smart minds and great ideas, for innovation and growth. For us, Europe is the perfect hub for startups. Our mission is to identify fearless founding teams with ambitious digital ideas and global aspirations. We want to help early-stage startups to pick up speed and to accelerate their growth. Therefore, we invest in digital business models across industries and sectors, including lifestyle, mobility, travel, fintech, media, and healthcare. Another corporate accelerator, you think? Well, think again – at APX, we do things differently. First of all, we believe that real value lies in people, not in business models. That's why we support startups in the very beginning of their development, sometimes even before they enter the market. To follow this passion, we are willing to go great lengths - for example from Berlin to Helsinki to attend the Slush Festival in Northern Europe
"The future of mobility is another step closer: Series production of the first purely electric Porsche is set to begin next year. In preparation, the vehicle has now been given its official name: The “Mission E” concept study, the name currently used to describe Porsche’s complete electric offering, will be known as the Taycan. The name can be roughly translated as “lively young horse”, referencing the imagery at the heart of the Porsche crest, which has featured a leaping steed since 1952. “Our new electric sports car is strong and dependable; it’s a vehicle that can consistently cover long distances and that epitomises freedom”, explains Oliver Blume, Chairman of the Executive Board of Porsche AG. The oriental name also signifies the launch of the first electric sports car with the soul of a Porsche. Porsche announced the name for its first purely electric series as part of the “70 years of sports cars” ceremony. Two permanently excited synchronous motors (PSM) with a system output of over 600 hp (440 kW) accelerate the electric sports car to 100 km/h in well under 3.5 sec-onds and to 200 km/h in under twelve seconds. This performance is in addition to a continuous power level that is unprecedented among electric vehicles: Multiple jump starts are possible in succession without loss of performance, and the vehicle’s maxi-mum range is over 500 km in accordance with the NEDC."
