On a personal note, thanks to the Startup Boston community, I was introduced to my early-stage accelerator at Cambridge Innovation Center. As a solo entrepreneur, I struggled to develop my idea while working out of coffee shops and realized I could only go so far on my own. Joining an accelerator offered me the structure and networking opportunities to move forward. It was time to shift from working in isolation to being part of a community of like-minded innovators and entrepreneurs. If you’re in a similar position, check out our directory to find the right fit for you!
