Our 2016 Accelerator Cohort Put On Quite A Show The Other Night

ewalsh • June 17, 2016

Our 2016 accelerator cohort put on quite a show the other night at the Mark Twain House & Museum. 18 startups–from CT to CA–attended a closed-door party to celebrate the completion of their 5-month quest to gain access to the knowledge, networks, and resources they need to grow their businesses and impact.

Following an hour or so of networking and tabling over hors d’oeuvres catered by The Kitchen at Billings Forge, nine of the businesses (below) took the stage to give spirited, 5-minute pitches during a Venture Showcase.

Winners of the accelerator’s $25K funding pool will be officially announced as a part of our Impact Awards Night on October 27 at the Society Room of Hartford. However, we could not be more proud of this entire group. The pleasure was all ours!
