Climate-Tech Startup Accelerator (Q1 2023) - hosted by: Tampa Bay Innovation Center

Where innovation gets down to business.

The Tampa Bay Innovation Center's B2B accelerator program is focused on preparing founders to launch and scale an emerging tech company. Unlike most early-stage programs that focus on crafting the perfect pitch or raising money, this program takes an “inside-out” approach. We prepare your company not to just “look ready” but to “be ready” to hit the ground running, engage customers, and execute your go-to-market plan. Our program helps startup founders develop into leaders that can rapidly execute, adjust when appropriate, and know how to navigate obstacles that consistently distract or derail promising startups.

Our next program will focus on startups in the climate-tech space. This program, its mentors, and corporate partners can accommodate a broad range of hardware, software, and services innovations. Some of the areas of interest include:

Energy Storage / Energy Delivery
Smart Buildings
Smart Cities
SmartGrid
Accelerating Digital Transformation
Sustainable (Green) Energy
Carbon neutral data centers
Marine science, monitoring, protection & restoration
Weather monitoring & impact modeling
Supply chain / business & consumer waste reduction
Transit / Last mile delivery optimization
AgTech
CleanTech
Clean water / water conservation

The workshops will kick off in early January with the first section focusing on market and product strategy. The last half of the program will make sure founders develop a successful and sustainable go-to-market strategy. This may include Beta customers but is primarily focused on the overall scalability-readiness of your startup. As with previous cohorts, the program will wrap up with a investor and business community showcase event in front of the program sponsors, investors, and stakeholders from the local tech & business community.
