So your looking to build a business from scratch and your looking for help or support. Whether your a first or second time founder i have built and sold businesses and been backed by top tier accelerator and have interviewed at some of them and so i have put together this list of what I believe to be the most important ones.

  1. Y combinator

The don of accelerators. Worked with Sam Altman (the co founder of ChatGPT) and backed startups like Airbnb and dropbox or coinbase this is THE accelerator to get into if your looking to build a billion-dollar startup. Remember less than 1% of startups make it in.

  1. Techstars

This is a good overall and also a great choice. Techstars may not have so many wins like YC but definitely has a great network.

  1. Entrepreneur first/antler

Not the tier 1 accelerators but worthwhile competitors. I feel like these may be more European-focused than the other 2.
