Introducing the 2022 Pennovation Accelerator Cohort
The 2022 Pennovation Accelerator officially launched Wednesday, June 15th for the program's fifth summer!
The Pennovation Accelerator cohort companies represent a variety of industries across consumer products, health tech and robotics. The 6-week curriculum will focus on the makings of a strong pitch, from business model to storytelling, and will culminate in a Pitch Day on Wednesday, July 27th (save the date!).
