What is the format of the program?
The accelerator program currently runs as a hybrid program. At the beginning of the program, it works with the startups selected for the accelerator and the anchor mentors to determine each startup’s challenges and the support required from the program.
Then these startups will go through an intensive 1-week long in-person Bootcamp around topics such as Product, Design, Technology, People & Growth, followed by the OKR (Objective Key Results) workshop to define their objective for the next 3 months.
