Have a great idea in the software or web space?  Have a working version already?  Think you’re doing something innovative around gaming?   Interested in spending 20-weeks in a great, collaborative space interacting with advisors and experts with $25k to boot?

We are pleased to announce that we are now accepting submissions from prospective applicants for our next cycle!  The application is submitted online, and can be saved so that you can resume it at a later time.  We also provide a readable version of the application to review beforehand, so you know what to expect.

We also love people with lots of great ideas… so if you have more than one please submit it!  However, note that you have to create a separate ID and submit a separate application.

Applications will be reviewed as they come in, so we encourage you to apply sooner rather than later.  The application period closes on October 15th, and we’ll be conducting interviews with selected companies in late October.

Good luck!

AlphaLab is an accelerator for software, web, and game-related startups located in Pittsburgh, PA.   We invest in companies that are developing innovative ideas and technologies and have the ability to make rapid, significant progress during our 20-week intensive program.  Our first group of companies moved into the AlphaLab space in June and have been busy talking to prospective users and customers, developing their products, and defining their initial market strategies.  They have also had the opportunity to interact with our advisors, meet other entrepreneurs, investors, and experts, and collaborate with each other.

With this blog, we plan to keep you up-to-date on what’s happening at AlphaLab and to share and discuss other blog posts, articles that are relevant to our companies and the areas they’re targeting.  The AlphaLab team will all be contributing to the blog and we hope to have some guest writers as well.  We invite you to comment and contribute to the discussion.
