Acceleprise is an accelerator project established in 2012 with purpose of giving mentorship to founders in SaaS business. SaaS is an acronym for software as a service, it is a branch of cloud computing in which software solution are rented through cloud services to companies and individuals for a price. Beside Saas, acceleprise also support platform as a service(Paas), artificial intelligence (AI), health care sloution and lots more as long as it can provide technical based solutions that can affect the way businesses are run and yield huge ROL There are many companies that have the potentials to offer such services but it has been very difficult for them to grow because of lack of funding, investors, customers and mentorship.
Acceleprise help in this area by providing all of these in one package. It offers 5 months mentorship programme during which founders could access capital through fundraising, loans, ready investors and they are also provided with ready customer base for their solutions. As a requirement though, 5% equity is demanded which in my opinion is good enough.
Acceleprise as an accelerator has being around for a while and has maintained a good record of success throughout its existits existence. it has accelerated more than 150 companies and many these companies have added value and increased the adoption of cloud computing as a means to change the future of running business as well as increased outputs.
Acceleprise also has good partneship with great companies like Brex and others which contribute in a large way to the success in the founder's access to loans and advisory.
