Who the Accelerator is for

The Allia Impact Accelerator is for late pre-seed or seed impact start-ups that aim to address the most pressing local and global challenges. You will have demonstrated traction and are now looking to develop and scale up your business. Founders must be living/operating in London, Cambridge and Peterborough.

We will accept participants outside of these locations if you are willing to attend the in-person sessions in London.

Why Us?

We know there are countless "accelerators" out there for start-ups but few have the experience, resources and network to help scale impact ventures like Allia. We are intimately familiar with the challenges that both traditional start-ups and impact businesses face and have built a programme with you in mind. Our team and network of expert coaches and mentors are committed to accelerating your business forward to address some of society’s greatest challenges.
