How to Get More Out of an Accelerator
Join the Washington Clean Energy Testbeds for the next event in our Entrepreneur-in-Residence series: How to Get More Out of an Accelerator. Startup accelerators offer entrepreneurs the opportunity to jump start their business as they continue developing their innovations. However, not all accelerators – or incubators, fellowships, etc. – are built the same. Join us for a discussion on what you should consider when selecting a program that can offer you, your technology, and your business an optimal experience.
The discussion will last 45 minutes to one hour. Guests are welcome to stay until 12pm for an open networking session. Coffee, tea, and pastries will be provided.
