Applications for Cohort Two open until April 15th
Congregate Solutions Accelerator is accepting applications for their Spring Cohort until April 15th
The Congregate Solutions Accelerator brings tech companies together with potential partners in the Travel, Performing Arts, Hospitality, and Tourism (TPATH) industries to address key challenges with pilot projects. Congregate is now seeking applications from northwest technology companies that are in the startup or “pre-scaleup” phase that have a proven product or service or have raised at least a seed round that is ready to scale. This accelerator is focused on forming partnership pilot projects in the TPATH industries, so applicants should be in a phase of their venture that facilitates this opportunity. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis through mid-April with an emphasis on companies that have projects or products that can address one of the main challenges: (1) recovering business travel or (2) addressing workforce challenges. Learn more about the challenges.
A couple interesting reasons to apply:
Congregate does not require an exchange of equity from participant companies
$10,000 in AWS Credits
Participation is 100% remote, so location in Seattle not necessary
Product or vertical validation through a pilot project is low cost, high reward
Connections with industry partners for future customers like the Seattle Seahawks, cruise lines and other NW companies.
More information on the program, the benefits of participating and how to apply can be found on our applicants page.
