Prototyping Hardware Accelerator
Rev offers a deep dive into hardware through an 11-week Prototyping Hardware Accelerator summer program that leads product teams through a process for determining if their ideas are commercially desirable, technologically viable, and economically feasible. Upon completion of our program, Hardware Alums are positioned to recruit team members, bring on partners, work with contract manufacturers, and pitch to investors.
ClimateTech Prototyping Hardware Accelerator
The ClimateTech Prototyping Hardware Accelerator is uniquely focused on supporting entrepreneurs focused on addressing climate change. The Accelerator includes customized workshops, speakers, and trainings tailored to cleantech and climatetech startups. If you have a hardware or product idea that falls into the “climate technology” or “clean tech” category, this program will help you test your idea and prepare you to launch your own company.
AgTech Prototyping Hardware Accelerator
The AgTech Prototyping Hardware Accelerator immerses agtech startups in specialized training and connects them to experts and potential partners within the agriculture industry. The Accelerator includes customized workshops, speakers, and trainings tailored to agtech startups. If you have a hardware or product idea that falls into the “agriculture technology” category, this program will help you find a market fit and develop the tools to launch your own company.
