Rainfall Accelerator
We invest in ambitious founders with visionary ideas for humanity
Innovation isn’t a one size fits all process, growing your business ideas shouldn’t be either.
Rainfall Accelerator invests in passionate, underrepresented founders and partners with them to strategize and design solutions to help them achieve their goals.
- More Seats At The TableEverything we design at Rainfall centers the human experience, so we want to work on projects from people with experiences different from our own.
- Eyes on the FutureClimate change and the environment should be everyone’s focus, so we’re particularly excited about investing in the latest ideas to help us combat climate change and ensure that we can continue to live on this planet for generations.
- Attentiveness, Acknowledgement, AccommodationWe look at each relationship through our accelerator program as a long term partnership. In order to create a meaningful product, our partners need to be just as bought into our Design Made Human™ approach as we are to their unique solutions.
- Not designers, but design mindedWe don’t expect our partners to be designers! In fact, we are very aware that they probably aren’t and that’s okay! What we do hope is that they will have an appreciation for the design process and respect for the impact that our strategy work can have on their company.
How it works
We offer a number of approaches, but here is the most simple: Rainfall takes an equity stake in your startup.
Then, we work together to elevate your identity, product, or platform.
