Accelerators and incubators usually focus on startups they believe will strike it big, fast. But Israel-based global organization PresenTense has decided to apply its expertise in the field to launch an accelerator that will groom startups that address the needs of people with disabilities.
PresenTense, a largely volunteer-run community of innovators and entrepreneurs from around the world, “who are investing their ideas and energy to revitalize the Jewish community,” has partnered with Beit Issie Shapiro and The Rudeman Family Foundation to launch the new Accelerating Inclusion in Israel (A3i), the world’s first accelerator focused on solutions to the needs of the disabled.
