Once interviews are complete, you'll be informed if you’ve been chosen. Is there follow-up assistance after gBETA? Once founders complete the 7-week program, they become alumni.

Program Managers keep in close contact and continue to support their alumni, and alumni are part of the gener8tor network for the life of their business. We make every effort to ensure they are considered for future opportunities such as gener8tor’s investment accelerators , inclusion in our gener8tor conferences , and lightning rounds or introductions to new mentors and investors. We have your back from start to finish.

What kind of time commitment will gBETA need from me? Do I need to be working on my startup full time? Running a startup and going through an accelerator is a commitment, but you don’t need to be working on your company full-time to participate in gBETA.

We typically require 4-6 hours per week for meetings, plus additional time for follow-ups and for time that the founder needs to spend on their businesses. . Our goal is to focus on projects that will significantly advance your company, making it time well spent.

We understand the balance between personal and work life, so our program managers will work with you to fit the program into your schedule. However, we do expect founders to make every effort to maximize their experience. Can I apply to gBETA more than once?

Yes, please do! Due to the nature of the program and our desire to put a strong focus on five companies per cohort, not all who apply will be immediately accepted. Founders should continue to apply for gBETA even if they are not accepted upon first application.

Will gBETA help me raise money for my business? Yes and no. We will help you set and achieve metrics that make your company attractive to investors and we’ll help you craft a killer pitch. We’ll also introduce you to investors both during the program and after the program, if you’d like us to.

However, we won’t pitch or make asks for you. We’ll show you the path, but it’s up to you to make the journey and get the funding. While we cannot make guarantees in terms of potential investments, we work very hard to ensure that the program puts you in the best position possible to raise money if that is your goal.

Which gBETA program should I apply to? Every gBETA program is different depending on the market for which you are applying. Some programs accept any type of startup that is located in a certain geography, while others may recruit nationally for a specific industry vertical.

If you are unsure whether or not to apply, we highly recommend requesting office hours with the Program Manager of the program that interests you. Do I need to sign a Participation Agreement if I am selected to participate in gBETA? Although participation in gBETA is free, all participants are required to sign a participation agreement during the onboarding process.

Should I be concerned about the protection of my intellectual property if I decide to apply? We treat all application data as confidential and don’t steal ideas. With thousands of applications yearly, many with similar concepts, we don’t sign NDAs.

Our application doesn’t require your “special formula,” so only share what you're comfortable with I know a great company that should go through gBETA. How can I let gener8tor know? We’re eager to hear about companies you think would be a perfect fit for gBETA.
