Techstars is the worldwide network that helps entrepreneurs succeed. Our 13 week mentorship-driven accelerator programs provide in-depth foundational content that prepares you to run your startup, plus strong mentoring relationships with experts in your industry and in all aspects of entrepreneurship. We truly set you up to #DoMoreFaster—participants often say that they accomplish more in these three months than they would in a year and a half, working on their own. Programs culminate with Demo Day: we prepare you thoroughly to give your best pitch to a room full of interested investors. Learn more about the benefits of an accelerator (www.techstars.com/startups ), and read our FAQ (www.techstars.com/faq/); for further details.
We currently run more than 40 mentorship-driven accelerators in over 15 countries, based around industry verticals or locations.
