Worcestershire, January 8th 2020 – Worcestershire’s first-of-its kind technology accelerator is now searching for their third cohort. BetaDen is now accepting applications for their 9-month accelerator programme from technology entrepreneurs to small technology businesses that are minimal viable product (MVP) ready or in a position to develop to this stage.

BetaDen is offering cohort 3.0 an exclusive and unique package of business support, worth over £50,000 that will be awarded to between eight to ten MVP-ready entrepreneurs or companies. The 9 month accelerator programme will include access to office space at BetaDen’s hub at Malvern Hills Science Park, investment coaching, marketing funding, business mentors and commercial meetings to offer companies a successful route to market.

BetaDen’s third cohort, starting in May 2020, will aim to attract a range of technology creators, from tech entrepreneurs to small technology businesses that need dedicated offsite space and time to create next-generation solutions for their evolving supply chains. BetaDen is also open to companies with ideas that need ‘Proof of Concept’ funding and mentoring to rapidly form the MVP.
BetaDen is dedicated to support next-generation technologies. The type of technology can be innovated within a broad spectrum of emerging applications, including: security technology, IoT, AI, telecom and assistive technology.

Horizon opportunities such as API imperative products and solutions, assistive technologies and big data solutions would be ideal for this comprehensive package, as the BetaDen environment provides a revolutionary platform for businesses to develop next-generation technology and be at the forefront of technology supply chains.

Linda Smith, Founder and CEO of BetaDen said: “Cohort 3.0 will be the third cycle of our successful programme, and we can’t wait to see the applications come in from a vast array of technology developers. For Cohort 3.0 we are looking to accelerate companies that are established, have been running for at least three-to-six months and seek routes to market or investment readiness. Previous cohort members have had significant achievements to date with the support of BetaDen, inclusive of, global patent registration, successful MVP launches and industry partnering.”

“For the eight to ten candidates that make it through to the programme, we can guarantee that your company will be fast tracked to market with comprehensive, industry backed support and guidance from field experts, at no cost to the successful applicants.”
