The Savvy Entrepreneur: Gener8tor & Accelerators

Accelerators have been successful in helping many startups. Finding the right one can mean the difference between success and failure. And accelerators vary in terms of industries served, and the type and quality of support provided.

Gener8tor, an accelerator based in Madison, Wisconsin (which has since expanded to several other mid-market cities) has been named one of the top 10 accelerators in the country.  That's no small feat.  Gener8tor is the only accelerator receiving that accolade that's based in the U.S., and only one based in a mid-market city, so you know they're doing some things right!

Troy Vosseller is the Co-Founder of Gener8tor, as well as the founder of Sconnie Nation and Sconnie Beer.  He joins The Savvy Entrepreneur Show to talk about how and why Gener8tor was founded, and some of its many innovative programs. He also shares advice on how to find the right accelerator for your business, as well as how to get accepted into that accelerator.
