Frequently asked questions

Is an accelerator worth the equity?

A good one is: the network, the investor access and the pressure to move fast often outweigh 5–10% equity. A weak one is expensive at any price — ask alumni.

When should I apply to an accelerator?

When you have a team and early signs of demand, but before you raise a seed round. Most programmes invest at pre-seed.

How do I get in?

Show a committed team, a clear problem and progress between application and interview. Warm referrals from alumni help a lot.
