Vancouver, BC, March 4, 2022--(T-Net)--FoundersBoost has announced the launch of its global pre-accelerator Chapter applications for this 2022, Spring cohort.

FoundersBoost closes the gap between early-stage tech startups and investment by preparing startups for accelerators, investment and revenue generation.

"The FoundersBoost Chapter is critical in helping act as a stepping stone for future entrepreneurs to start their journey to build great companies," said Blake Caldwell CEO and Co-Founder of FoundersBoost.

Since 2017, FoundersBoost globally has had over 4000 applications to it's Chapter with 365 startups selected to attend their Chapters who have now gone on to raise $100m+ in investment.

Chapters are based in America, Africa, Canada, Europe, and Asia, encompassing 14 locations around the world.

FoundersBoost will be starting on April 6th and continuing for 6 weeks. The program has gone fully remote since 2020

"FoundersBoost was critical for teaching me how to tell Algo's story. When I entered the Chapter, I was having a hard time explaining our market and user life experience to people. Throughout the Chapter, the FoundersBoost team + mentors helped me craft a narrative around what we do in a way that directly contributed to Algo's ability to raise a pre-seed." said Anna Merzi, Founder at AlgoPay.

Between eight and ten pre-seed/seed stage tech teams will be selected to take part from each Chapter. This year's Chapters take place remotely online.

Prerequisites include a comprehensive business model, a Minimum Viable Product (MVP), and market validation or traction. Working in tandem with keynote speakers, the FoundersBoost Chapter Directors offer industry insights alongside hands-on mentorship, guidance, validation and the necessary resources for building traction. The startups accepted into the Chapter are not charged any fees and have no equity taken.

Co-Founding member of FoundersBoost Gene Murphy said "The benefit of FoundersBoost is that it brings a Chapter to help pre-seed investment teams make the next big step in an under-supported stage to prepare them for Accelerators, Investment and most importantly Revenue generation."

Concluding with a local chapter Demo Day, this year's startups' will gain exposure to potential new sales leads, and the opportunity to pitch and connect directly with investors and accelerator directors. Companies also get promoted to investors globally through the FoundersBoost global investor day which takes place 6 weeks after their Chapter and allows investors from around the world view their pitches online for a limited two-day period. FoundersBoost's alumni will be part of a growing global network across America, Arica, Canada, Europe, and Asia, with interest being received from Cities around the world.
