Purdue Innovates Accelerator founders showcase innovation at Pitch Night 

On August 27, the second Purdue Innovates Accelerator cohort concluded its 14-week, investment-based program at Pitch Night. After intensive mentorship, investor pitching, and educational opportunities, the five teams shared their well-honed pitches with an audience keen to support Boilermaker innovation.

“This year’s Accelerator cohort demonstrated exactly what we hoped to achieve through the program: measurable growth, stronger companies, and founders who are better prepared for the opportunities ahead,” said Doug Applegate, associate director of Purdue Innovates Incubator. “The innovation on display tonight reinforces Purdue’s role as a leading destination for entrepreneurship and startup creation.”
