TaxDrop Meets Startup Accelerators 🍎
If you're in NYC, you might have seen TaxDrop pitch at fantastic events - TechCrunch Disrupt to Microsoft in Times Square. These events are great because we can pitch to real consumers and connect with renowned advisors/investors. So far on our journey, we've had help from influencers across the startup space: Ian McNish (a founding member of LinkedIn and 500 Startups Mentor), Murat Aktihanoglu (Partner at New York's ERA Accelerator), our advisor Andrew Hill (Harvard Business School startup advisor), a handful of founders who have had successful exits, and with equal importance-- YOU!
TaxDrop Meets ERA Startup Accelerator
TaxDrop is proud to announce that we have made it to the interview round for one of New York's top startup accelerators, Entrepreneurs Roundtable Accelerator (ERA). With hard work and perseverance, we hope to report back to you with updates from the other side (post-Republic company updates), immersed in this high energy and inspiring environment to take TaxDrop to the next level.
