Techstars Impact Sharpens Startup Focus

Looking to enter Austin's Techstars Impact, the new "impact" focused accelerator, but not sure what they mean by "Impact"? The startup accelerator issued a new list of the kinds of startup it would like to see apply to its program, saying it wants startups in financial services, affordable housing, migration, workforce and future of work; education; diversity and inclusion; democracy; impact investing; clean energy and climate change solutions; food recapture and recovery; oceans, water & sanitation; and other areas. The deadline to apply for the accelerator is in February of 2018.
