The end of Accelerators as we know it. Accelerators (think Y-Combinator, Techstars, PlugnPlay etc) became a huge trend in the last few years. Many big corporates (many through their marketing departments) started their own, many vertical ones were started.  After a few years of hype the trend seems to be reversing. Some accelerators are closing down and others consolidating into a few hands and methodologies. We will take a look at investment focused versus ecosystem focused accelerators, different methodologies and whats important to know to run a successful accelerator.
Also how will accelerators look in the future for corporates, for investors and for governments. Join this interesting talk about the future of business.
