The Breakthrough Cohort

IMG_8083.jpg

Accelerate@Shea’s 2025 cohort marks a defining year of breakthrough and momentum. Building on the foundations laid by past founders, this year’s teams dove into a nine-week sprint of experimentation, testing, and traction-building, combining focused workshops with hands-on mentorship from seasoned entrepreneurs. From refining business models to validating real users, the 2025 founders turned ideas into execution.
