Launching the Future  of Disability Tech: Highlights from Demo Day

We’re thrilled to announce that our startups have officially completed the 2024 Accelerator program! After 16 weeks of hard work, learning, and growth, they capped it off with an incredible Demo Day.

Demo Day is the highlight of our Accelerator program, where startups get to pitch their innovative ideas to investors and partners who can help take them to the next level. Both our US and Global cohorts delivered truly empowering pitches during their live Demo Days, and we couldn’t be prouder of everything they’ve accomplished!

For these founders, Demo Day isn’t just about pitching—it’s about launching their future and advancing Disability Tech. It’s also a moment to look back on the journey so far and gear up for the exciting growth ahead.

A Big Shout-Out to Our Demo Day Award Winners:

  • CareWindow – Telstra People’s Choice Award (Global Cohort)
  • We Hear You – Solly Rodan Award (US Cohort)

Chosen by different voting audiences within our community, these two startups were acknowledged for their outstanding work within their respective cohorts. Along with all the startups from our 2024 Accelerator, we’re incredibly excited to follow where their journey takes them next!

Catch Up on Demo Day Highlights and BTS!

During Demo Day, each founder shared their startup pitch with a live audience. You can catch the US cohort’s pitches at our Remarkable US Virtual Demo Day on October 29th at 12PM Eastern. Register here to join.

We’ll be sharing videos of all the startup pitches online soon, so be sure to subscribe to our newsletter for the updates when they become available. In the meantime, check out some of the highlights and behind-the-scenes moments from Demo Day!
