Rockit

What Rockit does

Rockit is Lithuania's leading startup innovation platform, legally organized as the non-profit Startuolių platforma, Všį, headquartered in Vilnius. The platform delivers a multi-faceted service stack combining coworking memberships (Community at €120, Flex Desk at €150, Private Desk at €250, Private Office at €275 per person/month, plus Kaunas at Drobės fabrikas), accelerator programming (Startup Highway with hackathons, pre-acceleration, and incubation), and event IP including Startup Fair (15 years running), Palanga Resilience Bootcamp, Baltic Fintech Days, and Investors' Breakfast. Programs target startups across all stages with extra focus on early-stage founders, and structured de minimis aid of €7,000-€20,000 per participating startup is delivered through the EU-funded Startuolis project (€832,633 grant, Feb 2024-Feb 2027). The underlying technology is operational rather than productized: a multi-site coworking/event platform without disclosed APIs, SDKs, or proprietary software, anchored by strategic partner Swedbank powering the launchpad and Startup Lithuania as co-organizer.
