TechStars Applications Are Now Open

Jan 19, 2009
Category Techstars

Applications for the 2009 TechStars program are now open.  If you apply before March 1st, you’ll be eligible to receive an invitation to TechStars For A Day on March 3rd.  The applications deadline is March 21, 2009 at 11:59:59 PM MDT.

For an example of one of the TechStars 2008 companies, take a look at the recent article in the NY Times titled An Online Farmers MarketIt’s a great profile of Foodzie – one of last year’s companies which was founded by Rob LeFave, Emily Olson, and Nik Bauman.  Foodzie recently raised $1m from First Round Capital and SoftTech VC, have launched a dynamite site, and are off to the races.

Hint: Foodzie applied early, came to TechStars For A Day, got into the program, and knocked the cover off the ball.

Apply now.  ‘Nuff said.
