Academic Accelerator
Elevator’s unique Academic Accelerator is discovering the entrepreneurial talent of tomorrow.
In partnership with leading academic institutions - University of Aberdeen, University of Dundee and University of the West of Scotland - this programme acts as a launch pad for those who have ideas with real potential but need support with making the business case.
​
The intensive, fully funded 8-week accelerator is open to current students and recent graduates (within the last two-years), staff and academics together with academic and university spin outs.
​
Successful candidates will work closely with mentors and industry experts to test, research, develop and refine their ideas, taking them from concept to viable business plans.
