Criteria
- They fund all types of startups, working in most verticals, using any type of business models. Do keep in mind, however, that the focus is on startups rather than small businesses.
- They do the best to avoid accepting competitive companies into the same program class. However, with the growing number of Techstars companies, there may be competitive companies in the broader Techstars network. In the event there is a company in the Techstars portfolio that’s competitive, they work tirelessly to ensure there is no exchange of sensitive data.
- The primary language that they use in verbal and written communications during all accelerator programs—in every country—is English.
