Decelera
9-day cost + equity-free program in Riviera Maya, Mexico
About this Accelerator
Decelera, the world’s first decelerator, is hosted by Decelera Ventures, a fund focused on investing in impact-focused seed-stage startups.
Selected startups will be eligible for a €150.000 - €300.000 convertible note (with the possibility of €2M follow on).
Decelera is the perfect program for founders who want to take a step back, slow down, gain perspective and new insights, and prepare for their next phase of growth. You’ll spend your days on the island sharing 1:1 and group experiences with investors, mentors, and industry-leading founders.
