Corporate Accelerators
Capital Innovators runs corporate Accelerator programs to drive innovation for organizations through structured startup engagement. Our programs are unique from every other Accelerator in the world due to our mentorship model and corporate champion team structure. In fact, we have had corporates that have hired other Accelerator partners to run their programs, and after they were unsatisfied with the results, they came to Capital Innovators because our model is so much more effective and transformational. Not only do our programs source the most cutting-edge solutions and entrepreneurs from across the globe, but they also drive engagement to reinvent corporate culture and employee mindset, which enhances work product, creativity, morale and efficiency. This all leads to a better workforce, which creates new opportunities for growth.
