Jet fuel for startups: The case for accelerators


Maybe you’re the founder of a young company and are in the stage where you could use some advice, direction and maybe even some capital. An accelerator just might be the jet fuel needed to propel your business to the Next Level. Here’s a look at what you can expect, generally speaking:

Moral support. Being at the helm of a startup can be lonely and isolating. When you sign on with Prepare 4 VC, you benefit from the experience and knowledge of our all-star talent, including venture capital professionals, successful entrepreneurs and founders, and MBAs. Plus, you can network with other founders in the accelerator program, who might have similar struggles and goals.

Investor access. While there’s no guarantee of securing funding via an accelerator program, an accelerator can connect participants with interested parties (investors) who are drawn to accelerators in the hopes of backing the next big success.

Intellectual capital. Instead of reinventing the wheel, you can benefit from the experience and knowledge of your peers to launch your startup on firmer ground. What’s more, such a program can provide the skills you need to succeed in all facets of your business, including sales, marketing ,finance, and the like.

Risk management. Risk is inherent to entrepreneurship. However, you can reduce the chance of failure by leaning on resources like an accelerator. Such a program can help you identify blind spots and provide you with direction to correct course.

Perspective. Mentors can challenge you when you might need it the most. They can ask the important questions that get you out of your own head and thinking of the bigger picture, while suggesting the tools and tactics to get you there.

A launchpad. Feeling stuck? We’ve all been there. An accelerator can be the kick in the butt you need to move past a mental or actual block. This guidance might inspire you to market a more diversified offering or expand into a new market.
