Terms in plain English
Springboard Enterprises is a 501(c)(3) that runs roughly four month accelerator tracks, opening with a two to three day bootcamp followed by one on one advising and investor presentations. Its FAQ states that as a nonprofit Springboard does not take equity, though it suggests an optional contribution of 1 to 2 percent in warrants. Applicants pay a $100 application fee before the priority deadline, rising to $200 after, plus a program fee if selected; the FAQ lists the program fee as $2,500 to $5,000 while the apply page cites $5,500, and Springboard does not publish a reconciliation of the two figures. Springboard provides advising and network access rather than direct investment. Current cohort dates and 2026 application deadlines are not published.
Who this is actually for
Women led companies in technology and life sciences, with tracks in women's health, longevity, healthcare and technology, and fashion tech. Applicants must have a woman in a senior management position holding a significant equity stake in the company, and the programs suit growth stage founders seeking expert connections and strategic partners.
