BoomStartup is a virtual accelerator that focuses on cutting-edge technology with the potential to revolutionize the human experience. The BoomStartup program firmly believes in the power of connection and networking when it comes to growing and scaling a successful startup. The right combination of mentors, investors and expertise is the key driver of startup success. 

BoomStartup, complete with a network of more than 400 mentors and investors, has coached over 170 startups since its inception. The impressive track record includes approximately 70% of graduates receiving funding that has ranged from $500K to $1.5MM. BoomStartup’s graduates have raised more than $55MM in seed capital upon successful completion of the program. 

This accelerator program delivers a customized experience for startups. Upon applying, each startup is evaluated through the lens of 7 different business metrics. Based on their answers, they are assigned a managing director who crafts a custom acceleration plan and guides them through the program from start to finish. Mentors are readily accessible and available for working sessions. The core curriculum takes place over the course of 6 months, with 6 additional months of ongoing mentorship. As participants mature through the multi-layer acceleration plan, they become eligible to receive up to $120K in seed funding, deployed across multiple investments, in exchange for 6-9% equity of the company.

BoomStartup is in search of entrepreneurs who are developing innovative technology ventures with the potential to change lives. The founders must be coachable, determined and able to commit to two hour calls twice a week in addition to ongoing mentorship calls several times a week.
