Alsessor - Tangent's AI Accelerator

Request an application form for the 2022 programme now! Applications close 14 January 2022.

Alsessor is a five month accelerator program designed to support global early-stage AI companies at prototype or proof of concept phase. Sectors of interest are retail, digital health, fintech, insurtech, regulatory, and compliance. The second year of this programme will start February 2022 and the bootcamp will run over a consecutive five month period with, if COVID-19 restrictions allow, at least 18 face to face gatherings by way of organised workshops and events.

The participants are nascent businesses with bleeding edge innovations in AI. This AI accelerator will help expedite each startup’s commercial development within the rubric of an intense accelerator environment. Such a collaborative environment has been proven to be of immense benefit to entrepreneurs and innovators, offering them exposure to domain expertise, mentorship, masterclasses and workshops.

Once the businesses have exited the accelerator, they will have improved, refined and perfected elements of their business model and their approach to commercially exploiting the solutions they are developing. Ultimately, we want to embed this initiative in the AI start-up ecosystem and create cornerstones for ambitious, global reaching international businesses.

Alsessor AI Accelerator takes place in 2021, 2022 and 2023. Follow the journey of the 2021 intake on Twitter @alsessor.
