Start-Up incubators - an analysis of two leading incubators and their performance
| Resumo: | Accelerators are a modern phenomenon of start-up support. The first accelerator was founded in 2005 and several hundred have been created all over the world since then. The concept of acceleration itself is not new but the recent programs take a different approach. How well do these perform and what is the best method to accelerate start-ups? Two leading accelerators YC and Techstars are being analysed in this paper to evaluate their differences in performance and their approaches. |
