NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Lair East Labs (“LEL”), a New York City-based investment firm that runs an accelerator program for early-stage startups, picked the first day of summer to announce the 10 members of their summer 2023 cohort.
These founders will benefit from a four-month program of coaching, mentoring, workshops and presentations from successful entrepreneurs, CEOs and startup founders. They also will receive capital funding of up to $150,000. Sunstone Management, LEL’s capital partner, is participating in the program for nine of the 10 cohort companies.
“This impressive group of founders represent a wide spectrum of industries, with a great emphasis on tech-driven approaches,” said Michelle Wang, Lair East Labs co-founder and partner. “We’re looking forward to a great journey together getting to know the founders and helping them develop their solutions to the challenges they face.”
In its first five years of operation, Lair East Labs has already reached the ranks of the top 100 accelerators worldwide, according to Crunchbase. Portfolio companies have raised $45 million in that time after completing the accelerator program.
Earlier this year, LEL and Sunstone Management signed a five-year partnership agreement to support startup entrepreneurs through the accelerator program.
Here are the 10 companies in the summer 2023 program and a bit about what they do.
