StartEd Accelerator

The StartEd Accelerator is accepting applications for the October 2016 class from innovative startups focused on technology solutions to improve education and learning -- across all stages from birth through lifelong learning. Each of the ten companies selected for the program will receive up to $170,000 in funding.

The intensive three-month mentor-led Accelerator is housed at the StartEd Incubator, a co-working space dedicated to education entrepreneurship on NYU’s campus in New York City. The Accelerator will run from October 2 to December 21, 2016. It provides mentorship, coaching, legal services, development expertise, sales consulting, and business development, among other resources. It is designed to help entrepreneurs secure their next round of financing, culminating in the innovation festival NY Edtech Week where companies will present to an unparalleled network of angel and venture capital education investors.
