Pear

Pear Accelerator is the best program for pre-seed and seed-stage founders to launch iconic companies from the ground up. We deliberately keep the program "small batch" to maximize the attention each founder gets from our partners. Our companies are rigorously vetted-we accept less than 2% of the companies that apply, many from top schools. In our short history, Pear Accelerator companies have raised a combined $500M, with combined valuations of $1.4B from top venture capital firms. This does not include our 2020 cohort, which we are sure will bring this number up considerably.
