We've been around the block more times than the garbage man.

We know that a vehicle which allows a startup to receive...

all of the benefits of a global accelerator,
a lucrative partnership with a leading brand in your space,
a body of evidence into the market,
significant connections into both mentorship and business,
a public collaboration with a large company that significantly increases your valuation,
(generally) an equity-free circumvention of the seed round
connections to a broad network of other startup founders
a potential partner in future collaborations
a potential investor for your future funding rounds and
a potential acquisition partner

(and doing so at a faster rate of scale than anything else out there) is a tremendous value to both the startup and corporate partners.

Gearbox provides its startups with one of the most innovative options to start, scale and stay financially healthy. With skin in the game, we're now motivated to make introductions to key connections, provide mentorship, perks, and guidance while helping with any other aspects throughout the rest of the entrepreneurial journey.

Doing the math: Most accelerators take 10% or more. Seed rounds generally take 20% or more. A-rounds take 20% or more. All of which are time-consuming, never guaranteed, difficult to close and generally don't provide added benefits beyond a capital injection.

Meaning: None of which has created any true value to the company's bottom line unless the founders make good use of what comes next.

At Gearbox, you're already on your way -- faster, with more value and equity.
