Cohort Updates 🚀

Welcome to Our US and Global Cohorts!

In June, we welcomed our US Cohort to the 2024 Accelerator program. These innovative startups started off their Accelerator journey at the Abilities Expo in Chicago, gaining valuable exposure and feedback. Check out our US Cohort announcement and Expo updates on our socials!

In early July, our Global Cohort joined with an amazing 3-day Kickstart retreat in Sydney, where startups connected and prepared for their journey. Learn more about our Global Cohort announcement and check out Kickstart retreat highlights below.

With these two cohorts, our 2024 Accelerator lineup is complete. These innovative startups are now part of our Remarkable community. We're excited to help them grow!

Program Insights 💡

How Do Industry Events Accelerate Our Startups?

Our 2024 Accelerator program is all about making connections and growing stronger, and industry events are key! After the Abilities Expo, our Director of Remarkable US, Molly Lazarus, shared her thoughts on how these events are game-changers for our startups.

“As a startup, one of the best skills you can gain is quickly identifying who you are talking to and connecting them to your work. At the Abilities Expo our startups get opportunities to rapidly share what they are working on to a huge swath of different stakeholders.”
