Startup Boost is a global tech Startup Pre-Accelerator program that finds promising early stage startups and prepares them for accelerators, investment, and revenue. The Pre-Accelerator program takes no equity or fees from the startups that are accepted. Global partners include Techstars, Global Accelerator Network, and F6S.

Additionally, Startup Boost is able to support even more startups through their BoostX online platform. BoostX helps early stage founders anywhere take the best next step in building their company through community, workshops, perks, office hours, and more.

The pre-accelerator is actively scaling out to new cities. As of Fall 2020, programs are located in Chicago, Detroit, Kenya, LA, London, Newcastle, NYC, Pittsburgh, Toronto, Vancouver, & Zambia (programs not running this Fall are Chicago and Detroit).
