What is the HyperAccelerator®?
The Rockies Venture Institute’s HyperAccelerator® is an innovative immersion program to develop and prepare tech, healthcare, and consumer product companies for investment and fast growth. Companies that graduate from the program are more likely to raise angel and VC funding and to grow quickly and demonstrate key milestones.
Finally,
Gone is the Need for 100 Page Business Plans
that sit in the corner collecting dust.
Now, successful startup companies must be highly adaptable and ready to take advantage of a new opportunity at a moments notice. This was the inspiration behind the Hyperaccelerator®. Rockies Venture Club created this 1 week education program to bring together the valuable pieces from the many education seminars that RVC developed over the last 3 years.

Now you can get the same program information and coaching that MBA students have paid thousands of dollars for in just one short, but exhausting week.

The program is a combination of content delivery, mentoring, and hands-on development. By the end of the program you’ll have a complete set of all the information, documentation and strategy that Venture Capitalists want before they will provide funding.
Companies who complete the program are considered “investment ready”, meaning that they have all of the information ready to begin pitching confidently to investors for angel and venture capital.
Take your startup from zero to sixty in just one, very short, very accelerated week.
RVC connects you with mentors that have experience founding companies and raising capital.
RVC has developed a curriculum that has been used by other organizations, including the Colorado OEDIT.
Take advantage of these resources to accelerate your company without giving up any equity.
