The Valley Ventures Accelerator Cohort will feature two distinct groups, each dedicated to different industry sectors. Group 1 will specialize in Agriculture Tech, while Group 2 will focus on Energy and Water. While there will be some shared content between the two groups, we will also offer separate industry events tailored to each track. Additionally, participants will be required to complete essential video modules covering grants, sales, and pilot demonstrations before the program begins, ensuring everyone starts with the same fundamental knowledge. We will select five ventures for each track, resulting in a total cohort of ten companies. This balanced approach ensures a diverse pool of participants from both sectors.
