FoundersBoost Healthcare and Accessibility Accelerator

The FoundersBoost Healthcare and Accessibility Accelerator is a 6-week, mentor-driven, and structured program designed for early-stage startups globally. It specifically targets companies developing technologies that address healthcare and/or accessibility for individuals with disabilities. The program offers between $25,000 and $50,000 in non-dilutive grant funding to participating startups. Additionally, MVMT Ventures, a partner in the program, intends to invest $250,000 into four of the cohort companies post-program. Founders benefit from a global network, actionable insights, and expert mentors, with no equity requirement or program fees. The curriculum covers essential topics such as customer development, pitch deck mastery, market entry strategies, achieving product-market fit, understanding the investment landscape, and fundraising strategies. The accelerator culminates in two showcases: a virtual demo day and an in-person showcase at CES, with all associated travel expenses covered. A strategic partnership with MLK Community Healthcare provides founders with access to healthcare expertise, data, strategic partners, and real-world environments for validating and refining their innovative solutions. The program seeks tech-based, scalable businesses with initial customer traction, and actively encourages applications from diverse and underrepresented founder teams.

Applications for the program open on July 15, 2026, and close on September 15, 2026. Interested founders should submit their applications online.
