What exactly is Acceleration?
Acceleration is a modified form of incubation which was specifically designed for promising and growing companies that are too young to receive conventional venture capital or institutional financing. During Acceleration, FVAP provides the resources, contacts, relationships and value-add that would usually be deployed during a standard venture investment, often including an Executive in Residence (EIR). These resources are geared to help make the company as “investable” as possible, as quickly as possible (typically between 3 to 12 months).
