A five month accelerator program designed to support global early-stage AI companies at prototype or proof of concept phase. Sectors of interest are retail, digital health, fintech, insurtech, regulatory, and compliance.
ABOUT
Alsessor AI Programme
The programme will start January 2021 and the bootcamp will run over a consecutive five month period with at least 18 face to face gatherings by way of organised workshops and events.
We are looking for nascent businesses with bleeding edge innovations in AI to apply for this programme. This AI accelerator will help expedite your commercial development within the rubric of an intense accelerator environment. Such a collaborative environment has been proven to be of immense benefit to entrepreneurs and innovators, offering them exposure to domain expertise, mentorship, masterclasses and workshops.
Once the businesses have exited the accelerator, they will have improved, refined and perfected elements of their business model and their approach to commercially exploiting the solutions they are developing. Ultimately, we want to embed this initiative in the AI start-up ecosystem and create cornerstones for ambitious, global reaching international businesses.
OUR PARTNERS
OUR SPONSORS
The Accelerator or Bootcamp experience has become a mainstay of entrepreneurial breakthroughs over the last 15 years and Tangent’s emergence affirms that start up disruption has become a key driver of innovation and a key component in harnessing a community of intelligence in confronting nascent commercial challenges.
The substance and range of content comprising our proposed Accelerator activities means that start-ups should emerge with real substantive insights on how to:
- Commercially validate their solutions via intense market research and commercialisation pathways
- How to generate and protect IP and patent activity
- How to specifically address the customers’ needs and pain points
- How to ensure the ease of integration of their solutions into sophisticated operating systems
- How to pitch and how to sell, both to investors and to potential end users
- How to get where you want to go and faster
