Techstars is the worldwide network that helps entrepreneurs succeed. As one of the largest pre-seed investors in the world, we’ve funded over 3,200 companies that have gone on to have a market cap of $79B+. Techstars portfolio companies include more than 100 companies with valuations of over $100M, and 19 of them have already reached unicorn status including SendGrid, ClassPass, and Chainalysis.
For startups around the world and from any industry interested in tapping into one of the top ten startup ecosystems in North America, this accelerator program is ideal. You don’t have to be a student or affiliated with SDSU in any way in order to capitalize on the expertise and resources the university and the San Diego community provides. This San Diego-based accelerator provides a strong talent pool, high quality of life, incredibly collaborative tech environment, and a growing venture capital scene.
Each year, we choose hundreds of early-stage companies to join one of our 3-month, mentorship-driven accelerators, investing capital and providing hands-on mentorship and access to the Techstars network.
