Patrick Bryant and John Osborne, Co-founders of The Harbor Accelerator

January 27, 2014

The Harbor Accelerator is a business accelerator program designed with the entrepreneur in mind.  It has one goal… build scalable business for the Charleston region. Each start up is provided resources, mentorship  and support to grow quickly, test the market quickly, and become viable. 

The program is designed to introduce high impact business concepts to an intense curriculum led by successful mentor entrepreneurs.  These mentors walk side by side with the start up team throughout the 14 week program to keep them focused on the critical elements needed to grow their business.  At the end of the program, the starts ups know what is needed to take the next step and are introduced to possible capital sources to help them grow.

The first cohort of eight companies started January 2 and will complete their program in mid April.

The reason we started the Harbor Accelerator was to move entrepreneurship forward in Charleston. We are devoted to the idea of connecting and creating collision between the entrepreneurs in the community.
