The Program

Capital Innovators provides tech startups with the resources and connections they need to get to the next level.

We provide $50,000 in seed funding, mentorship from a seasoned pool of knowledgeable entrepreneurs, stellar perks, educational and social events, and the opportunity to pitch to angel investors and venture capitalist firms at the end of the program.

Although we receive hundreds of applications for our 12-week Accelerator Program, we can only accept five companies per class. We run two classes each year – one in the fall, and one in the spring. Make sure to check out our full application schedule and apply today.
