Five firms selected for tech accelerator’s fall class

Nationally ranked startup accelerator Gener8tor has announced which five local companies will receive intensive and individualized coaching as part of the gBeta Indy program launched earlier this year.

Fifty-eight companies applied for the fall class—six more than for spring.

The local companies that will be a part of the fall class are:
-Encamp, which automates hazardous-material-inventory reporting.
-Little Nugget, which organizes digital photo albums.
-SmileML, which makes software that annotates user emotions in interview videos and aggregates insights into a dashboard.
-The Bee Corp., which applies data analytics to beehives to help growers with pollination.
-ThickStat, which has a natural-language voice platform that delivers actionable business insights in real time.

GBeta is a free accelerator for early-stage companies with local roots. Participants receive coaching plus access to Gener8tor’s national network of mentors, customers, corporate partners and investors. FairWinds Advisors is pleased to be a mentor for the program.
