Update – Coronavirus Impact

Due to the COVID-19 coronavirus, the first F50 Elevate accelerator program this year is now scheduled completely online , and will be conducted through online boot camps along with the online  F50 Global Capital Summit®  and one-on-one remote engagement. The program is limited to six startups that are relevant to F50’s 2022 theme of HealthTech and Remote Innovation, so apply now!

F50 Elevate™ is monitoring this dynamic situation closely and will update the Elevate program as appropriate in response.

Our program focuses on the key challenge for startups with an early product and market validation: how to prepare to effectively raise their first significant seed or pre-Series A round.

Our advantage is a community of over 100,000 members consisting of a large global investor network, vast entrepreneur reach and brand equity within the venture ecosystem built on 25 investor summits over the past six years. The Elevate program accelerates growth and fundraising with the collective intelligence of our deep roots in Silicon Valley, together with our angel network, corporate partners, and industry experts as mentors.

Successful F50 Portfolios

F50 Elevate is very well-positioned to take on this important role, with a track record of successful startup selection, guidance and investment over its 5-year history. The accelerator is built on top of the F50 venture ecosystem, which was launched in 2014 and has rapidly become one of the largest investment networks in Silicon Valley. 

Since it began its Summit events in June 2014, F50’s 237 selected companies have collectively raised more than $100 million through the F50 network of investors. The F50 Venture Fund has invested directly in 30 of the most promising of these companies, including trending startups like Oculii, Knightscope, Flirtey, Plastic, Doc.AI and others. And the eight companies in the first F50 Elevate Cohort have already received serious interest from Tier 1, boutique and angel investors just one month into the 10-week program.
