I asked what folks think all-remote can do that in-person can& #39;t. The main answers:
- Access -- meet more people in diff circumstances
- Scheduling -- remote = always matches your schedule
- Niche without losing scale opportunities

Some of the key players!
@tinyseedfund -- year-long, all-remote accelerator for bootstrapped SaaS. Focus is on relationships, ongoing mentorship, and helping the business reach its next phase (not just explode and go)

. @techstars anywhere.
The remote version of the Techstars accelerator, run by @ryankuder.
3 month program geared to folks who can& #39;t travel for TS (or when it doesn& #39;t make sense, both pre- and during covid)

An interesting one because it& #39;s exclusively for Atlantic Canadian entrepreneurs, but gives access to a global network for support, customers, and funding
It chose remote so it could reach ultra-rural entrepreneurs without pulling them from their communities

. @WellsFargo startup accelerator
This one is juicy: up to $1m in funding, no board seat requirement, and access to Wells and its 80+ company portfolio for a potential customer base
They also want broad innovation, since Wells is so big. It doesn& #39;t have to be only banking
