About International Accelerator

International Accelerator is an Austin, Texas-based accelerator founded in 2014 that exclusively supports foreign-born entrepreneurs seeking to launch their startups in the U.S. market. Its investment thesis targets pre-seed and seed-stage non-U.S. citizen founders, requiring relocation to Austin and an MVP with early traction. The firm provides a $50,000 seed investment via a SAFE instrument, typically taking 10–15% equity in exchange for funding, housing, visa assistance, and office space. While specific lead/follow behavior is not publicly detailed, the program functions as a comprehensive relocation partner rather than a passive investor. Notable portfolio companies include CoreCare, which has raised $3 million, and Skaffolder. International Accelerator distinguishes itself as the only U.S. accelerator dedicated solely to international entrepreneurs, offering a full soft landing into the American startup ecosystem.
