VENTURE FOR AMERICA DEMO DAY: DETROIT WATCH PARTY

Join VFA Detroit for an in-person watch party as they close out the annual Accelerator with a pitch competition featuring the six Fellow-Founded companies in our 2022 cohort!

Altimetrik Collider is graciously sponsoring the event by hosting us at their space!

About the Accelerator:
The Accelerator is a three month program for Fellow-Founded Companies that are pre-Series A and have a minimum viable product. It’s also zero-equity and provides a $2,500 monthly business stipend, access to a network of peers, mentors, subject-matter-experts, and investors, and a chance to win up to $10,000 in prize money at Demo Day.

This year’s Accelerator programming was made possible by the generous support of the Alabama Power Foundation.
