Accelerator

Also called: startup accelerator, accelerator program

A program with a fixed length that helps a group of early companies grow faster through coaching, introductions and sometimes funding. Some take equity in exchange. Many end with a 'demo day' where founders present to investors.

For example: A founder with a working product and a few customers joins a three-month accelerator, meets weekly with mentors and presents at demo day.
