757 Accelerate is a selective, mentor-driven accelerator that prepares pre-seed and seed-stage startups to raise capital and scale. We focus on investor readiness and disciplined execution: tightening your go-to-market, validating customer demand, building a credible finance model and data room, and sharpening the narrative that wins meetings—and term sheets.

What you get:

Curated mentor bench of operators, domain experts, and active investors

Hands-on working sessions (not lectures) across GTM, pricing, metrics, finance, and legal readiness

Structured pitch development with iterative feedback and mock diligence

Targeted customer and investor introductions aligned to sector and stage

A polished demo experience geared to quality follow-ups, not vanity metrics

Who we back:

Innovative, scalable solutions with clear market pull

Coachable teams showing speed, traction, and a path to revenue

Tech-forward companies across software and applied innovation categories

Why 757:

A serious, execution-first culture; tight operator network; and a region rich in enterprise, defense, healthcare, logistics, and maritime relationships. Founders leave with sharper fundamentals, a stronger pipeline, and momentum into their raise.

If you want fluff, look elsewhere. If you want results, let’s work.
