SERIES AI is Microsoft and Seedrs' new AI-focused startup accelerator
Seedrs and Microsoft will hold a four-week AI accelerator program for startups at the seed to Series A funding levels. The program offers specialized webinars, insights, and resources. Six finalists will be selected to pitch their businesses to leading VCs in the UK at Microsoft’s Reactor Space.
Seedrs recently announced that it is collaborating with Microsoft to materialize SERIES AI, a sector-agnostic AI upskilling program that builds up to a Pitching Demo Day on June 17, 2024, in which six finalists, selected by the program's VC and expert panel, will be able to pitch their businesses to leading venture capitalists in the UK, including Vektor Partners and SFC in Microsoft’s Reactor Space in Paddington. The four-week accelerator is open to all startups preparing to raise seed to Series A funding and looking for assistance in integrating AI solutions into their services and products. Starting on May 13, 2024, successful applicants will access insights, resources, and mentorship, including eight upskilling webinar sessions that cover key topics in building with AI and successfully going to market, among others. Participants will also benefit from resources accessible at the Founders Hub and ISV Success, such as Cloud credits and licensing from Microsoft and its partners. The selected finalists will have access to a 1:1 workshop with the Microsoft UK AI Development team and discounts for fundraising with Seedrs. The program opened for applications on April 15, 2024.
