On September 13th, we welcomed six new startups to the MetaProp accelerator family. The past month has been energizing, challenging and productive for them and us as we ramp-up the startups’ growth curve.
MetaProp integrates its venture fund and advisory businesses with its accelerator companies. Over the summer we launched our Fund II and recently added a new Consortium of sponsors, making the MetaProp community more integrated and stronger than ever. At the beginning of the accelerator program our number one goal is to connect each startup in the cohort to our broader community. As our network of investors and sponsors has grown, so too have the opportunities for our companies.
John Kang, CEO of Reasi, flies across the country every other Thursday to join us. He explained that so far, our community has been the greatest value he has gained from the program: “MetaProp opened up the East Coast PropTech ecosystem for us. We've lined up back-to-back meetings with partners we would have struggled getting in front of. Furthermore, the program has helped with branding and navigating broker and title relationships,” John explained.
