The Moonshot has 10 global accelerator partners in 6 countries that leverage principles of inclusive and universal design and accessibility in their models.
Through this initiative, we will identify and support cohorts in these accelerators that will, in turn, support and mentor approximately 220 early-stage companies across the globe. In addition, we plan to deploy catalytic, seed-stage investments into companies in the moonshot’s accelerator cohorts.
