Tampa Bay Innovation Center Accelerator Program

Where innovation gets down to business.

About this Program

Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of a tech incubator or accelerator?

Typically, our 12-week accelerator program accepts 8 – 10 companies per cohort, but we realized many first-time startup founders that could benefit from the planning activities and tools may not be ready to commit to a fulltime program.

If that sounds like you, join us for our IdeaSprint Bootcamp on Wednesday, January 15th from 5:00pm - 7:30pm.

This abbreviated, but very intensive program is perfect for early-stage B2B software startups (less than 9 months old). We'll dive deep into strategy, product development, and market validation.
