Neo Accelerator 2023: Apply now

Hi Neo Family,

We just opened applications to Neo Accelerator 2023, the ultimate launchpad for 20 awesome tech startups. Please help us spread the word!

Neo Accelerator reimagines the essence of an accelerator, including: a residential campus; a Demo Day to fundraise AND hire engineers; and $625K on exceptional terms, for 2.5% and an uncapped safe with floor valuation.

We reinvented each aspect of an accelerator to align with today’s demands:

Residential Campus: Our 3-mo program starts with 4 weeks at an all-inclusive intensive retreat in Oregon and ends with a week in San Diego. Work late hours in our co-working space replete with monitors, snacks, caffeine, and meeting booths. Bond over meals, hikes, and more.

Demo Day for fundraising AND hiring: Pitch an audience of top-tier investors as well as exceptional engineers looking for their next opportunity. Recruiting technical talent is an existential challenge for tech startups, and we’ll help you crush it.

Get $625K on unparalleled terms: 2.5% plus an uncapped safe with “Floor” valuation. Each founder also gets a share in the whole portfolio. Read our detailed funding terms.

Founder profit share: We’ll give all founders an incentive to help each other. Get economic participation in our fund’s carry, equivalent to the profit from $10,000 of “money at work.”

Diversity as a pillar: To date, 47% of our capital has backed female or underrepresented minority CEOs. From our team to our portfolio, diversity is a priority at Neo.

Exceptional mentors: Our mentors include experienced operators, domain experts, and life-long builders. Learn from successful founders like Erik Goldman (Vanta) and prominent execs like Camille Ricketts (Notion), Kyle Parrish (Figma), & more.

Lifelong veteran community: Since 2017, we’ve brought together tech veterans and iconic founders who share our passion for helping tomorrow’s leaders. See Scott Forstall and Reid Hoffman visiting Neo Campus last year. 

We invite world-class investors to join our Demo Day. Retweet this announcement if you’re a VC or angel investor who wants to get early access to awesome startups.

At Neo, our mission is to help you maximize your potential. We will welcome 20 teams with at least 1 strong technical founder (see our screening philosophy). Please share this announcement and submit your application today. To learn more, join one of our upcoming info sessions. We’re excited to see what you’ll create.
