Source: Smart Grid Observer
January 31, 2018 --
Ameren Corporation is seeking applicants for the Ameren Accelerator, an innovative public-private partnership with the University of Missouri System, UMSL Accelerate and Capital Innovators, that will assess, mentor and invest in energy-technology startup companies. Applications are being accepted through March 9 at amerenaccelerator.com from interested entrepreneurs and energy-technology companies.
Selected companies each will receive $100,000 in seed capital to participate in the Ameren Accelerator program, which will be located in Cortex – St. Louis' innovation and technology district. As part of the 12-week program, the selected startup companies each will receive intensive mentoring, technical assistance, facilities and networking connections from the Ameren Accelerator partners. Subject matter experts in the areas of energy, sales, marketing, pricing, technical development, operations, talent development and finance also will provide guidance.
At the conclusion of the program, participants will showcase their efforts to the mentoring teams, potential third-party investors, corporate executives, entrepreneurs, students and the general public during Ameren Accelerator Demo Day in September. Ameren may select the most promising projects for ongoing mentoring and engagement beyond the accelerator program.
The Ameren Accelerator is one of the first of its kind in the United States and the first in the St. Louis region to focus solely on emerging energy technologies.
