Techstars Launches Social Experience Accelerator With Beer Brewer AB InBev

Boulder-based startup accelerator operator Techstars said this morning that it is adding yet another, startup accelerator program to its long and growing list of accelerators--this one focused on "social experience", and located in New York City. The new Techstars Connection accelerator--being run in conjunction with beer brewer AB InBev, is focused on what the accelerator operator calls "enhanced social experiences", such as curation, personalization, and location around consumption, including products and systems that use "raw materials, fermentation and brewing". The company said the program will run from October through January of 2017, with applications opening today. This will be the fourth startup accelerator that Techstars runs in New York City.
