About Conquer Accelerator

Conquer Accelerator is a university-backed startup accelerator operated by Spartan Innovations, a subsidiary of the Michigan State University Foundation, and launched in 2016 to support early-stage startups through cohort-based programming. The firm targets capital-efficient businesses with less than $1M in external funding, focusing primarily on fintech, insurance tech, and related sectors, with eligibility requiring a functional prototype and measurable traction. Geographically, the accelerator is centered in East Lansing, Michigan, serving startups that demonstrate scalable distribution models and cross-functional teams of three or more members. Each selected team receives a total investment of $50,000, comprising a $20,000 equity investment at the program start and a $30,000 grant upon completion, indicating a follow-on or structured investment behavior rather than traditional lead/follow dynamics. Notable portfolio companies include Sawport, which received an investment in January 2024 as part of their Incubator/Accelerator program, though specific names for other cohort members like the Summer 2023 teams are not publicly listed with company names in avai
