B2B Accelerator Program

The site does not state a next intake for the accelerator. Its two most recent cohorts, Winter 2026 with nine companies and Spring 2026 with twelve, are past.

The B2B Accelerator Program is a 16-week pre-seed programme for B2B software companies. Forum invests in each company it accepts in exchange for equity, and the accelerator page sets out the terms. Offices are in Toronto, New York City and San Francisco. The site says Forum works with founders remotely, wherever they reside, but it describes its focus as North America, so check eligibility from India before applying.

What you get

• Investment in exchange for equity, on the terms the accelerator page sets out.
• A dedicated Managing Director who works with the company one-to-one every week.
• Help from a fractional co-founder to reach meaningful traction and get fundraise ready.
• Introductions to customers in a network of more than 300 Fortune 500 and Fortune 1000 companies, for product feedback, design partners and first customers.
• Introductions to vetted funds in Forum's investor network.
• Business perks from platforms including Google, AWS, Brex, HubSpot and Stripe.

Who can apply

• B2B software companies in any vertical, at the pre-seed stage.
• Companies with an MVP in market, or one about to be.
• Companies that have taken on less than the prior-funding ceiling the accelerator page sets.

How selection works: The accelerator page does not describe its review steps. The points above are its stated criteria.
