StartEngine is a rapid accelerator program focused on helping Los Angeles-based technology startups build a solid foundation for success in 90 days. Created by Howard Marks, co-founder of Activision, and Paul Kessler, one of the most prolific investors in Los Angeles, StartEngine will provide local startups with the essential resources and counsel they need to become successful, self-directed businesses. StartEngine offers a team of mentors who have proven themselves as successful entrepreneurs--not professional investors--ensuring that its startups are guided by the right people for the right reasons. Early-stage companies in the web, mobile and ecommerce space are encouraged to apply for the program which completes four cycles per year, culminating in Demo Days that are attended by the region's top angel investors, VCs and influencers. StartEngine has invested over $300 million.
