Overview

SOSV HAX is a leading accelerator program focused on hardtech startups, particularly those developing physical products that integrate hardware, software, and connectivity. As part of the global venture capital firm SOSV, HAX offers unparalleled resources for startups looking to take their innovations from prototype to market. With programs in Shenzhen and Newark, HAX supports startups through every stage of development, from initial prototyping to manufacturing and market entry.

The HAX program spans approximately six months and is tailored to meet the unique needs of hardware startups. Participants receive hands-on support from a dedicated team of engineers, designers, and business experts who guide them through the complexities of product development, manufacturing, and scaling. The program also provides access to state-of-the-art prototyping facilities, a global network of manufacturing partners, and connections to industry experts.

One of the standout features of HAX is its focus on early-stage funding. Startups accepted into the program receive an initial investment of up to $250,000 in exchange for 10% equity. This investment is designed to provide startups with the financial resources needed to develop their products and prepare for mass production. Additionally, HAX startups benefit from the broader SOSV ecosystem, which offers follow-on funding opportunities and support in areas such as marketing, distribution, and customer acquisition.

For startups working on groundbreaking hardware products, HAX provides a comprehensive platform to accelerate development, reduce time to market, and achieve commercial success.
