Overview

Entrepreneurs Roundtable Accelerator (ERA) is one of New York City’s leading startup accelerators, providing early-stage companies with the resources, mentorship, and funding they need to scale quickly. Since its founding in 2011, ERA has become a cornerstone of the NYC startup ecosystem, helping hundreds of startups achieve significant growth and success.

ERA’s program is highly competitive, selecting only a small number of startups for each cohort. The 4-month program offers startups $150,000 in seed funding, access to a vast network of over 500 mentors, and the opportunity to connect with a global network of investors and corporate partners. ERA’s approach is hands-on, with a strong focus on helping startups achieve product-market fit, refine their business models, and prepare for rapid scaling.

A key feature of ERA is its location in New York City, a global hub for finance, media, and technology. Startups in the program benefit from close proximity to a wide array of industries and potential customers, making it an ideal environment for businesses looking to tap into major markets. Additionally, ERA provides comprehensive support in areas such as customer acquisition, fundraising, and go-to-market strategies, ensuring that startups are well-prepared for the challenges of scaling their operations.

ERA’s alumni network is another significant advantage, providing ongoing support and opportunities for collaboration long after the program ends. Graduates of the program join a community of successful entrepreneurs who continue to benefit from ERA’s resources and connections.

For startups looking to establish themselves in one of the world’s most dynamic cities, ERA offers an unparalleled platform for growth. More information about the program, application process, and success stories can be found on the ERA website.
