acceleprise cohort 4 - 2

Today, Acceleprise SF hosts their Demo Day for their 4th cohort of startups. Acceleprise, “the SaaS accelerator”, provides early stage B2B companies access to a 4 month program where they’re supported by mentors, investors and a structured curriculum covering topics such as UX/design, sales, distribution, fundraising, customer acquisition, hiring, and more. Acceleprise invests $50,000 in each company for 5% equity.The companies will be pitching their products to an audience of VCs, Angel Investors, and decision makers at large tech companies, in hopes of closing their next round of funding. Two founders shared their thoughts on going through the program:

“Acceleprise has been a tremendous experience. The network of advisors, mentors, friends, and investors that we have met through the program has been invaluable.” – Chebem Chukwu, CEO of MobilePhire

“Acceleprise’s focus on SaaS was a key factor in why we chose to partner with them. The level of operating experience from the founders and mentor network has allowed to navigate through the sometimes murky waters of running a SaaS business.” – Steffan Howey, CEO of LifeCycle
