ACCELERATOR PROGRAMS

Applications open for Techstars Anywhere Remote Accelerator

 Deadline Date: November 29, 2023

The ‘Anywhere Remote’ model provides the value of a top-tier Techstars accelerator to companies in North American timezones.

Techstars’ original remote-first accelerator program that started in 2017 - supports companies innovating across any industry. While they are industry and vertical agnostic, their 2024 program will include 12 B2C and 12 B2B startups.

For founders who are unable to relocate, Techstars Anywhere Remote provides the flexibility to participate in an accelerator program from anywhere. The program meets in person 3 times in various cities throughout the Americas.

Funding Information

Each company receives up to $120,000 in funding, and access to the worldwide network of investors, hands-on mentorship, and over $4M of perks.

Benefits
  • Access to Techstars resources for life;
  • Acceleration in a 90-day Techstars mentorship-driven accelerator program with personal mentorship and office space;
  • Lifetime access to the Techstars worldwide network of entrepreneurs, including more than 10,000 mentors, 10,000 investors, 1,600 alumni companies, and over 200 staff members;
  • Access to over $400k of cash equivalent hosting, accounting, and legal support—plus other credits and perks worth more than $5M;
  • Demo Day exposure and other investor connections.
Criteria
  • They fund all types of startups, working in most verticals, using any type of business models. Do keep in mind, however, that the focus is on startups rather than small businesses.
  • They do the best to avoid accepting competitive companies into the same program class. However, with the growing number of Techstars companies, there may be competitive companies in the broader Techstars network. In the event there is a company in the Techstars portfolio that’s competitive, they work tirelessly to ensure there is no exchange of sensitive data.
  • The primary language that they use in verbal and written communications during all accelerator programs—in every country—is English.
