About the Evernote Accelerator
The Evernote Accelerator is an intense, intimate residency program for six small startup teams. But once a week we're opening our doors to the public in a series of public events. Come meet our teams and see some great speakers:
The Evernote Accelerator is an intense residency program for the best independent teams building apps that work with Evernote. For four weeks, Accelerator teams will study a startup curriculum, attend workshops with Evernote engineers and designers, mingle with Silicon Valley influencers, and hack at their apps. It culminates in a demo day on November 14.
Travel, housing, and our legendary catered daily team lunches are included. Office space is provided in the Evernote building.
Each of the 2013 Evernote Accelerator teams won their spot by competing in the Evernote Devcup competition.
