NEW YORK, Oct. 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Aves Lair, a New York-based venture capital and frontier technology accelerator, announced the three startups of its Fall 2021 cohort. The 12-week accelerator will be held virtually, starting this week.
For each cohort startup, the accelerator designs a customized program that addresses its unique needs. In the first two weeks, startups are matched with EIR and lead mentors based on their industry and expertise. The team works with founders to identify specific problems and set up weekly milestones to tackle these issues. In weeks 3-8, startup founders receive customized coaching from Aves Lair's mentor and business connections to achieve the goals set in the first two weeks. Finally, weeks 9-12 are dedicated to refining pitch decks, building fundraising strategies, and presenting to global investors leading up to Demo Day.
Overall, the goal of Aves Lair's accelerator is to help founders realize the full potential of their ideas by overcoming their pain points. "Working closely with the team, we learn about the company and understand what their needs are in order to create strategies and plans that help them in the best way possible," according to Francis Berwa, a managing partner at Aves Lair, and a lead partner for the Fall 2021 cohort.
"We pride ourselves in creating an environment of trust and calm for both first time founders and serial founders," said Marian Tong, managing partner at Aves Lair. "We don't run your business, we don't build your team, we don't pretend to know the problem you are solving better than you do, but we make ourselves available to you 24/7."
