Are you a woman creating innovation at the intersection of fashion and technology? NY Fashion Tech Lab is taking applications for their 2016 accelerator.
The NY Fashion Tech Lab is currently accepting applications for 2016. The accelerator, co-founded by the Partnership Fund for New York City, Springboard Enterprises and major fashion retailers, is a 12-week program taking place March-June.
It focuses on targeting early and growth-stage women-led companies that have developed innovations at the intersection of fashion, retail, and technology. Eight to 12 women-led companies selected will receive:
- Mentoring and collaboration from the participating fashion retailers, VCs and the Lab’s Expert Network.
- Senior access to relevant user groups at the fashion retailers for product feedback and potential deployment of proofs-of-concept.
Each selected company will participate in:
- Meetings with senior business executives, investors, and experienced entrepreneurs.
- Workshops and panel discussions on issues relevant to fashion tech companies, such as data optimization, proofs-of-concept, technology architecture and scalability, privacy, security, and broader industry trends.
At the conclusion of the program, each of the fashion tech companies will present at a Demo Day, where fashion retail executives, investors, and press will be in attendance. Get info about key dates and more info on how to apply here.
