Techstars Columbus Powered By The Ohio State University Announces Fall Cohort

We’re back! After an incredible inaugural cohort this spring, Techstars Columbus is excited to welcome the next class of 12 companies to our Fall program in partnership with The Ohio State University and the Center for Software Innovation!

The Ohio State and Columbus community truly showed up for our us and our founders this spring. Hundreds of you showed up for one of our community events, mentor sessions, workshops and, of course, Demo Day. This support has given us tailwinds as a program and has set the stage for this next class to thrive.

Our vision continues to be bringing the best companies driving innovation through software to our most critical industries to Columbus, forging meaningful connections between them and the central Ohio ecosystem that create lasting returns for these companies and region.

This group of 12 companies hail from across the globe, from roots in Ohio and the greater Midwest to strong representation from both coasts and across borders into Canada and the UK. These are deeply mission-driven founders building in sectors that directly address some of our most pressing needs in mental health treatment, equity and access in healthcare, scalable clean energy solutions and more. They are building the future we aspire to as world citizens and they inspire us.

On behalf of our EIRs, Alan Gilbert and Drishay Menon, our exceptional partners Shereen Agrawal and Ratmir Timashev, and our countless mentors, we introduce the Fall class of Techstars Columbus!

P.S. If you want to be among the first to meet these founders, please join us on September 12th for a meet & greet at the STEAM Factory in Columbus!
