SPEEDRUN aims to accelerate the deployment of its $30 million investment fund, setting an ambitious target to complete the process within 45 days.
The accelerator program culminates on Demo Day, a key part of SF Tech Week, which takes place in Los Angeles from July 29 to October 20.
During this event, participants will have the unique opportunity to showcase their innovative products to potential investors, providing unparalleled exposure and engagement.
Yet this initiative offers gaming startups more than financial help and visibility; it includes industry insights, mentorship, and access to a dynamic founder community.
Interested gaming innovators can sign up to join SPEEDRUN now through May 19 on the official a16z website.
