757 Accelerate, a mentor-driven startup acceleration program, announced five companies selected for its next cohort.
The nine-week program, which launched on Monday, aims to move businesses from the pre-revenue stage to profitability and job creation.
During the intensive program, early-stage founders — equipped with $10,000 in funding — delve into training, ongoing mentorship, pitch refinement, investor connections and growth support.
The companies are:
FibrX, a platform that leverages fiber optics, artificial intelligence and cloud computing to provide round-the-clock non-invasive system infrastructure safety
Joy of Wine Co., a software company that provides the wine and hospitality industries with digital tools, AI and compliance solutions
Mercurial AI, a medical technology company developing a voice-first oncology copilot to help patients and clinicians navigate treatment
Nasoni, which is pioneering sensing tech that can detect early physiological decline in the home
Coastal Resilience Solutions, a maritime resilience-focused startup that helps coastal communities combat erosion and sea-level rise without compromising ecosystems.
Paul Nolde, president and CEO of 757 Collab, said in a news release that these founders are tackling problems that matter — and they’re doing so with scalable technologies. 757 Accelerate is a program of 757 Collab, a nonprofit hub dedicated to advancing entrepreneurship in the region.
“Cohort 9 underscores our focus on investor readiness and disciplined growth, ensuring companies are prepared to raise capital, enter markets and build durable ventures,” Nolde said.
