First, it aims squarely at the critical funding gap that all accelerator programs have. Teams can make impressive progress in just a few months, but few of them really get far enough for a full on Series A round to make sense (by which I mean a priced $1m+ round with the majority coming from a VC firm).

As the founder of a startup, one of the first issues you need to address is how to finance your company’s operations. If you are lucky enough to be able to fund your startup out-of-pocket, or through generous family members, congratulations.
