Techstars recently introduced an improved accelerator investment offer for companies accepted into our future accelerator programs. In addition to providing founders with more capital and a longer runway, we continue to focus on mentorship and providing lifetime access to our global network.

Techstars is here to help founders succeed — and we couldn't do that without our dedicated network of 3,100+ mentors who continue to support and guide Techstars founders.

"Techstars mentors are a driving force behind the success of our founders, offering unparalleled guidance, insight, and support. They wear many hats — strategic advisors, sounding boards, cheerleaders, late-night problem solvers — and play a crucial role in nurturing founders. All-Star Mentors take their commitment a step further," said Techstars Global Mentor Engagement Manager Carly Murphy-Forcade. "They consistently show up, going above and beyond, to pour their expertise, passion, and care into the founders, making a long-term lasting impact. These mentors truly embody the #GiveFirst philosophy, creating an environment where ambitious goals are not just envisioned, but achieved."

Each year, the top mentors are nominated by accelerator program teams to be designated as an All-Star Mentor for the previous year. The honor is for those who have gone above and beyond to help founders succeed.
