Six data-powered companies start to accelerate

We are delighted to welcome six early-stage companies to the BRIIA Spring 2018 Accelerator Program.  After an intensive application and review process led by co-founder, Melissa Ross, a group of BRIIA mentors and investors selected the finalists.  In less than 45 days, we identified the best companies for our next cohort.

Unlike our first cohort, all of the companies in this group are San Francisco Bay area natives and four of them are based in the Tri-Valley!

The Accelerator Program will start on March 19 and will be the beginning of nearly 100 hours of contact with experts and mentors as these companies travel the road to becoming “investable” companies.  Demo Day for these companies will be June 5, 2018.

Congratulations to the founders and teams that started these ventures and are taking next step of their entrepreneurial journey!  Hold on tight…here we go!
