Techstars Seattle launches 12th virtual cohort of 10 startups in January, achieves gender parity for first time

Techstars Seattle launched its 12th cohort as a fully virtual 3-month accelerator in January, applying lessons from the pandemic to expand investor outreach and eliminate commutes while accepting trade-offs in-person networking. The cohort of 10 startups — led to gender parity for the first time — includes alumni-backed ecosystem growth and highlights founders like Afriblocks operating across Harare and Los Angeles.

Techstars Seattle announced its 12th cohort, which will run largely virtually using lessons from its 2020 remote program and starting a few weeks earlier to improve virtual connection.
