The CRL said it was exciting and encouraging to see how far they’d come: how their propositions have evolved, how their products have developed, but most of all to see how their confidence has grown and for future CEOs to stand there in that room.
The CRL also thanked all of the start-ups for their hard work, Carlton Cummins of Aceleron for his keynote speech, all of the people that supported the CRL that attended, and all of the partner organisations that continue to support and make the programme possible. The programme is part-funded by European Regional Development Fund.
Alex Peet, the Product Design lead for the Accelerator, said: “This year’s cohort has featured some drastically different technologies. Some have changed their product’s proposition to include a stronger USP, whereas others have focussed more on manufacturability. Some companies have used their prototype to understand their manufacturing requirements and plan out their supply chain, ready for when their crowdfunding campaign’s launch. It’s been a tough six months, we were all proud to see the hard work showcased at Demo Day.”
CRL’s six month Accelerator programme is optimised to cater for the challenges of hardware businesses.
