Why Acceleration?
Immersive learning with a built-in support structure
An intense experience designed to help early-stage technology companies reach their potential, accelerators offer the chance for significant business growth and product development in a short space of time. Through immersion in a highly focused environment alongside like-minded peers and mentors, startup founders and teams can use the experience of an accelerator program to launch their innovations into the world at a scale that would otherwise not be possible.
While acceleration may not be the right path for every venture, it has undoubtedly been of great value to many of the world’s most successful, “unicorn” startups including Airbnb, Stripe and Dropbox. Education, guidance, financing and networking; these are just a few of the many benefits accelerator programs hold for startups.
