Six to eight companies are selected to enter the accelerator programme, but we remain flexible with the timeline of each pilot project. The most important element is that the pilots can demonstrate success in a way that proves scalability and drives innovative product development. How is the programme funded?
All pilot and travel expenses are covered by the accelerator programme. Is the programme in-person or remote? While some meetings are held remotely, teams are required to travel on-site (in North America and or Europe), where applicable, to execute the pilot.
How are the start-ups selected? All application submissions are carefully reviewed and the most relevant applicants are invited to present to CRH teams. Following this assessment, companies are selected to enter the programme.
What is the workload and required effort for startups when joining the programme? The workload depends on the nature of each pilot project but should be commensurate with any early adopter use.
Companies have wide engagement with CRH meeting regularly with management in CRH’s operating companies as well as the Innovation and Ventures team to discuss the pilot’s development, the company’s product roadmap, go-to market strategy, financing and supporting operational infrastructure. Does CRH Ventures consider investing in programme participants?
At the conclusion of the programme, companies may be considered for an investment from CRH Ventures of up to $5M.
