Abstract
An accelerator as a service is described where organizations can create an accelerator fund. From that fund the organization can invest sweat equity into selected startups. Those startups use the sweat equity to acquire startup services from experts who receive a participation in the fund. Eventually, shares in the fund are traded on an exchange.
