Startup52 is an early-stage accelerator based in New York City. As the first sole diversity-focused accelerator in NYC, Startup52 was founded by Chike Ukaegbu to identify and groom outstanding entrepreneurs in startup entrepreneurship and tech skill-set building, especially those from untapped and under-tapped communities in tech. These communities include people of color, women, LGBTQIA, immigrants, disabled founders, seniors, veterans, etc.. Our main goal is to increase diversity in tech.
