Connecting, and Scaling
Applying to Join the Iowa G2M Accelerator is Straightforward
1.
Apply
Iowa-based scalable startups are invited to submit an application to join us. Cohorts launch in April and October each year, with applications accepted on a rolling basis.
2.
Your Application
is Reviewed
We review all applications and invite promising applicants to a review panel with VentureNet Iowa. This entails a pitch and presentation to a panel of subject-matter and business leaders.*
3.
Find the Guidance You Need to Move Forward
Join your fellow participants for six months of learning, connecting, and scaling.
*If you’ve already applied for State of Iowa Innovation funding with VentureNet, we can
leverage your previous panel as part of your application.
Our application process is administered by VentureNet Iowa and is modeled after the Iowa Economic Development Authority’s innovation funding process.
How does that benefit you?
Applications for the Iowa G2M Accelerator and for the state’s public innovation funding programs (Proof of Commercial Relevance, Demo, etc.) use similar formats and require much of the same information.
