AI Accelerate

Run by BLOCK71.

AI Accelerate is a 10-week hybrid growth programme run by BLOCK71 in Singapore, starting in September with an Investor Day in November, for AI and B2B companies. Funding comes through the Startup SG Tech grant scheme rather than a direct programme cheque — up to S$400,000 for a proof-of-concept project or S$800,000 for a proof-of-value project. NUS Enterprise may take up to S$50,000 worth of equity at the next financing round, and Enterprise Singapore retains the right to convert up to 50% of the grant into shares.
