Apply to Be Among 10 Startups Participating in 2019 Alexa Accelerator

Alexa Fund and Techstars are excited to announce the 2019 Alexa Accelerator. The accelerator is a thirteen-week program built around the belief that voice will fundamentally improve the way we interact with technology.

Created in partnership between the Alexa Fund and Techstars and hosted in Amazon’s hometown of Seattle, the Alexa Accelerator, powered by Techstars gives early-stage startups the support they need to grow their network, gain traction, incorporate Alexa, and engage with investors.

Benefit

Participants will have access to a broad network of mentors from across both Amazon and Techstars networks, all of whom devote their time to helping participants take their businesses to the next level.

Eligibility

Up to ten startups will be invited to take part in the 2019 Alexa Accelerator. Builders from around the world who are enthusiastic about voice, AI and other enabling technologies – and their ability to transform customer and business experiences – are encouraged to apply.

Application

Interested startups can apply online on or before Sunday, April 7, 2019.
