Startup Accelerators: What Founders Should Know About Accelerators

From money to mentorship, on this episode of P&L we dive into the basic concept and value of startup (or business) accelerators.

Among the questions we dive into includes:

  • What are startup accelerators?

  • Who are they for?

  • What value do they truly bring to founders and businesses?

  • What’s the cost and how much ownership is given up?

  • How to evaluate an accelerator effectively?

Joining us to dive deep into the world of startup accelerators and their impact on startup success are Dr. Sivapalan Vivekarajah, Senior Partner & Co-Founder of ScaleUp Malaysia Accelerator, and Justin Lim, Managing Partner at NEXEA Ventures.

Tune in to gain insights into how startup accelerators can be a game-changer for your entrepreneurial journey.
