Brinc Unveils New Accelerator Programs for Spring 2023

 

Brinc — a leading global venture accelerator that prioritizes sustainability, inclusivity and equitability — announces the launch of new accelerator programs focused on Climate TechEducational Technology (EdTech), and MedTech & Healthcare, that will commence in Spring 2023.

The new verticals will complement the recently announced ENTERPRISE NEXT program as well as Brinc’s successful FoodTech program and Web3 accelerators (ZK Advancer and The Sandbox Metaverse Accelerator, run in partnership with Animoca Brands and The Sandbox). Applications for the Spring 2023 cohort are now open at: https://www.brinc.io/accelerators/.

The three new global Brinc accelerator programs will focus on:

Climate Tech
Covering innovative, scalable approaches to carbon dioxide removal (CDR), this vertical will provide tailored support to a global network of climate tech founders. Brinc will source early-stage founders working on permanent removal approaches, utilization opportunities, and enabling technologies. Support includes connections to relevant mentors and subject matter experts to address challenges such as IP, supply chain, refining their business models and go-to-market strategies, techno-economic/financial/impact modeling, and pitch preparation. Subsequent to the program, startups will receive ongoing support from Brinc’s portfolio team and be connected to a global network of investors.
Investment ticket: US$150,000

EdTech
Targeting startups that wish to drive impact and tackle education-related problems with use of Web3 technology, this program aims to support the education industry’s game changers. From providing lessons to roadmap assistance, minimum viable product preparation, and offering skills and connections needed to thrive in the space, the focus is on education equitability — particularly if a startup’s goal is to digitalize enhancement of both old and young clients’ knowledge and skillsets.
Investment ticket: US$250,000

MedTech & Healthcare 
Focused on innovative medical and health technologies to improve all aspects of the health industry, especially those that utilize Web3, Brinc’s MedTech & Healthcare program – taught in conjunction with Prenetics – invites founders that are exploring the use of gamification, rewards, and other digital assets in the metaverse to promote healthy living of body and mind. The program also supports startups using Web2 tech, such as wearables and clinical devices, that work towards the goal of making health more accessible, universal, and equitable.
Investment ticket: US$250,000
