The Accelerator Academy is a virtual accelerator program for advanced stage tech startups (within their first year, seeking up to £500k of seed investment). Our program is well established – we run three semesters a year and have helped over 150 graduate companies prepare to raise £50m+ of seed capital.
The Academy works with startup companies where there are at least 2 founders. We are looking to work with startup companies in their first year of trading and where their founders have made a full time commitment . We look for scaleable businesses, capable of delivering a 10x return on investment within a 5 year timescale. The Academy requires proof of concept (prototype, user data) and although companies can be pre-revenue or generating sales, we expect to see commercial interest (sales, orders, letters of intent). We prioritise companies whose founders have brilliant domain expertise, with some in house development / tech preferred to outsourced support.
