Durham, NC – Triangle Startup Factory – http://trianglestartupfactory.com See note: 1 MySpace’s Slingshot Labs Vienna, Austria – YEurope – http://www.yeurope.net See note: 2 Other Useful Resources: Map of Seed Accelerator programs around the world: On Google Maps

List of Application Deadlines for programs: here

In the comments, there was a program from Kettering University suggested. I see this program as more of a conventional incubator than what I have come to term a seed stage accelerator program. For this reason, (nothing against the program) I have not included it in the list (there are far too many conventional incubator programs to try to compile a list of those), though if you are in Flint, MI, hopefully the program is able to be of assistance. Again, I’m sure this is not an exhaustive list and there are others out there. Let us know – where else can startups find help! Sources: Numerous blog posts and tweets + Jed Christiansen’s dissertation appendix + great tips in the comments! The New York student programs were listed at http://bianys.com/student_incubators Edited: From the comments below and the thread over on Hacker News, there have been some great suggestions for the list. I’ve updated the list with the applicable programs. Further programs added in April 2010. Added IBM Smartcamp. Updated April 22 with program from comments. Updated on April 24 to include deadpool. Updated May 14 to include the additional resources (count at 93). Updated June 11 with new programs (count at 102). merged with Launchbox Digital in April 2010 ↩

I would like to get a new accelerator listed, Voivoda Labs. We have offices in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Europe.

Voivoda

Labs is looking to increase our company portfolio of companies by 4 in 2011. We

currently hold office space in technology incubators for three companies(one in

San Francisco, one in Palo Alto, one in Los Angeles). As part of our initiative to increase our portfolio, we are hosting 1 week

residency programs at these three locations beginning in July and running

through mid September. The start-ups chosen for our residency programs will

have the opportunity to come to the Bay Area or Los Angeles Voivoda Labs

offices and set-up in one of the incubator spaces for a one week period. During

this time they will be able to set up demos of their technology as well as

receive mentoring from our experts on how to bring their idea to profitability.

We can also provide support in your development process. Our team can has

experts in all development fields(with specialization in mobile development). Once the one-week residency has been completed, the companies which

participated will be evaluated based on a specific set of standards. The ones

which meet all of our criteria will be chosen for further investment of Voivoda

Labs resources(initial seed money, mentoring, development resources, ect). We

are currently accepting submissions for a chance to be considered for the

residency program.

Details

on how to apply and what is requested can be found at http://www.voivoda.com/Residen...

I

hope this information was helpful.

This is a terrific list. Glad to see that "accelerator" in used more often to describe "incubators". An accelerator gets a business out of the nest quicker than an incubator.

Dave McClure just launched an accelerator in Mountain View, California: This class and future ones will receive anywhere from $25,000 to $100,000 in seed funding in exchange for roughly a 5% stake in the company. The startups will spend their three- to six-month educational stay in a creative space in Mountain View, California, designed to help them flourish. 500 Startups hopes to host three programs per year.

I was wondering if you knew anything more about these two programs, Casey? Madrid, Spain - Digital Assets Deployment - http://www.dad.es/en Washington D.C. - Springboard Enterprises - https://www.springboardenterprises.org Do they have structured acceleration programs for businesses?

Robert Shedd [Moderator] 1 year ago in reply to Casey Allen

Thanks for the additions to the list! I've added them. And yes, I think you're right - it would probably be helpful to define "accelerator". I've already seen quite a diverse array of programs in those that are listed and there are certainly some that push the bounds of what I would term an accelerator. Regardless, though, it's certainly great to see so much support available for entrepreneurs.

Hi Rob, Great Post. Just as a quick comment from Tetuan Valley. Tetuan Valley is actual not an accelerator program but a not-for-profit pre-accelerator program we run here in Spain in order to bridge the gap between thinking about one day building your startup and actually building your startup. We ask for no equity and no cash and we even invite the teams for pizza every night. So far, it has been of tremendous help in building an ecosystem of wonderful people with great skills and high entrepreneurial hopes around us. Notwithstanding, since January, we partnered with Rainmaking and Alex Farcet to announce that StartupBootcamp would go European with us launching the spanish chapter, and not long ago, we recently announce the opening of Dublin with Bandwith Ventures (VC from the people who took XING.com from idea to IPO) and plan to announce soon Berlin & London.

Hi, Full disclosure I work for an accelerator called Atlas Accelerator (www.atlasaccelerator.com) based out of Seattle, WA. We are the largest accelerator in the PNW. One of our clients Escapia just sold to HomeAway.com the largest player in their industry. I'd love us to get added to this list and happy to talk to any one interested in learning more about us! T: @AtlasStartUps

I noticed that the Google map that somebody else posted a while ago was really inaccurate and incomplete, so I and a friend @jeffpesek created an improved one. This is only of:

- Accelerators (NOT incubators)

- For Early Stage Tech (and ONLY tech)

- In the U. S. only Perhaps a global one to come soon. Hope this helps! http://j.mp/acceleratormap
 * What is an "accelerator"?

- A system, a method (not a building or club or nonprofit)

- Accomplished in X months (not for an unspecified amount of time)

- With key resources such as cash and mentorship as core (not as optional) If you feel you fit, and are not on, please leave a comment after this.

Hi Rob - my name is Tammy Rimer and I, too, an am entrepreneur who got my start in a business incubator. I wanted to let you know of one that is not on your list. The Flagship Enterprise Center, located in Anderson, IN. That is where my business is (a marketing and design firm called cn design & marketing. www.cndesign-marketing.com). I love what you are doing and I, too, hope one day to give of my time to help young entrepreneurs get their start! Thanks!

Excellent list, but missing: www.accelerace.org in Copenhagen, Denmark. Its a 3-year old initiative to accelerate the growth of start-ups and is free for companies registered in Denmark. We also have just raised a small fund to invest in companies.

Hey Rob, DayOne Ventures is actually not a university-affiliated seed accelerator. This program, despite its location at Virginia Tech's Corporate Research Center, is an independent company that accepts applications from individuals of any age from anywhere. This is an incredible list by the way. Thanks for all of your effort in making this directory for everyone!

Hi Robert, That's a great list and thanks for collating it. You might also like to know that someone started a google map of the location of the Accelerators. You can find it at http://cli.gs/SeedAcceleratorM... I'm not sure if all the places you listed are included (or vice versa). In any case, I thought you might want to consider updating your post to mention it. Amir

Robert Shedd [Moderator] 1 year ago in reply to amirmc

Amir,

Thanks very much for pointing out the map of seed accelerators around the world. I had not seen this and it's an interesting visualization on the data set. There are a couple that look like they should be included - I'll take a further look at them and update the list accordingly. I'll also reference this as a useful resource in the post. Thanks again! Much appreciated! btw, where did you find this mentioned? Just always interested in expanding the sources I monitor... Thanks!

Love this! Do you know off-hand which ones have fall/winter programs?

Robert Shedd [Moderator] 1 year ago in reply to myasmine

Offhand, other than Y Combinator, I'm actually not sure. That would actually be some useful information to compile on the programs. I've been thinking about what would be helpful to compile on all of these and I think timeline is very important. I'll include that as I move forward collecting the information.

Casey Allen 1 year ago

Robert, you ask below "Does this....operate like the Y Combinator / TechStars / DreamIt Ventures seed-stage accelerator or more like a conventional incubator?" What do you see as the major difference? Also, I've got a half dozen more. Thus far, you have the definitive online list. Do you want folks to keep 'em coming?

Robert Shedd [Moderator] 1 year ago in reply to Casey Allen

Casey,

I think you'll find commentary from a lot of venture capitalists and others today saying that conventional business incubators have a bad name in the new age of bootstrapped tech startups (http://cdixon.org/2009/09/04/i.... I see a conventional incubator as basically a program run by a business development organization, chamber of commerce, or as a for-profit entity. They're pay-for-space programs that basically toss a bunch of early-stage companies into a building, charge pretty high rates for rent, and may have some kind of business services available. This post (http://www.startupnorth.ca/200... provides a good summary of a lot of the positives of startup accelerator programs. Most notably, they typically give the startups some minimal seed funding, and more importantly, are built around mentoring the startups. If you have any others to add to the list, keep them coming! Thanks!
