NewME Accelerator, a nationally recognized Startup Accelerator for minorities and women based in San Francisco, hits the road! We’re looking for the best talent in your city to find out who’s ready for Silicon Valley.

We’ve launched a high-intensity version of the critically acclaimed program in cities around the country. Entrepreneurs will get a taste of what it’s like to participate in the 12-week program in just 3 days.

Participants get: one-on-one coaching from Silicon Valley business leaders, hands on workshops, and the opportunity to pitch their idea to local and Valley-based investors with the chance to win $45,000 worth of prizes from our sponsors and the opportunity to participate in the NewME Accelerator in San Francisco.

Event Overview

During the PopUp we’ll meet with Founders and teams 1-on-1 in 50 minute sessions giving you personalized feedback on your startup or project.

Master Class: The Art of the Pitch, Part 1 & Part 2
You’ll also join us for 2 group workshops where we’ll help you craft the perfect pitch deck (Part 1) and present it like a boss (Part 2).  Workshops will include preparation work assigned prior to class.  Length: Approximately 2 hours.

What PopUp Attendees think

“I personally went through a much needed metamorphosis which took me out of my singular engineering focus and made me open my eyes as to what my company truly is and what we need to be focusing on. I am now operating with a balanced  ’business strategy’/'engineering’ approach.”
