July 10, 2023
On Monday 10 July we welcomed the inaugural class of founders for the Techstars Tech Central Accelerator powered by the NSW Government. Over the next 13 weeks, these 12 companies will be supported by over 120 mentors as they work through a series of activities designed to accelerate their ability to solve problems and build their businesses.
The companies forming this class were selected from hundreds of applications from all over the world. Their businesses are as diverse as they are exciting - representing AI, planning, healthtech, edtech, communication, climate tech, ecommerce and social impact. What they all have in common though is incredible drive and passion behind the problem they have chosen to solve, and commitment to bring their visions to life. We can’t wait to be a part of their journeys!
