Exciting news! For those who haven’t heard, MAÄT is part of the 2024 NYU Entrepreneurs Challenge, an accelerator program run by the Berkley Center for Entrepreneurship at NYU's Stern School of Business. The program provides startups like us with the knowledge and tools we need to thrive. This year is extra special as it marks the 25th anniversary of the competition, and we are thrilled to be part of this cohort on our founder's journey.
It’s been intense – starting in January, we’ve participated in a mix of in-person bootcamps, interactive online sessions, and one-on-one coaching from industry veterans. We've poured our hearts into the program, completed challenging deliverables, learned a ton, and even presented MAÄT at last month’s Venture Showcase in New York.
Next up, co-founder and CEO Fiona will participate in a panel of female founders in honor of Women's History Month on Wednesday, March 20, 12:00 pm EDT.
The Accelerator culminates in a pitch competition in April. MAÄT is part of the New Venture cohort, and right now we’re gearing up for the semi-finals in New York on Friday, April 5th. If you are in the city that day, come by and cheer us on.
Stay tuned – we'll be sharing more of our journey as it unfolds!
The founder community is what makes this journey so special. If you're a founder yourself, or thinking about taking the leap, reach out – we'd love to connect and share our experiences. Community is the best part of this adventure and we're happy to help out wherever we can.
