McGill X-1 Accelerator careers

Hosted by the McGill Dobson Centre for Entrepreneurship, the McGill X-1 Accelerator is an intensive 10-week summer program designed to accelerate early traction McGill startups towards investment readiness and launch.

We're looking for later-stage McGill startups who are able to demonstrate early traction and/or early revenue.

Founders are required to be in Montreal for 10 weeks in the summer. The McGill X-1 Accelerator 2017 will take place in Montreal from June 5 to August 11, 2017. Founders should be committed to working full-time in the co-working space provided on-campus at McGill. Demo Days following the X-1 will take place in Montreal, Boston and San Francisco in September 2017.

Teams should include at least one technical co-founder and should be made of 2 to 5 founders, with at least one participant having a McGill affiliation (student, alumni, faculty, or staff). If the only affiliation is a McGill alumni, they should have graduated from McGill no more than 5 years ago.
