What is the NewME Accelerator?

Simple. We are a residential technology start-up accelerator/incubator for businesses that are led by under-represented minorities in the technology industry. During our first cycle in the Summer of 2011 we helped 10 minority-led businesses get a step further to success by offering them mentorship, a network of industry players, and in some cases funding.

Our program is…

  • 12 Weeks long, twice a year (Feb-May; June-Aug)…. You can check out our Schedule or Apply
  • Close-knit: Only 8 minority start-up Founders are admitted per cycle
  • Fully Immersive: Founders co-live and co-work for the duration of the program making NewME one of the most intense programs around. Weekly, participants learn and get one-on-one mentorship from the industry’s elite.
  • Concludes w/ Demo Day
