Our Story

Acceleprise was one of the first SaaS focused accelerators in the United States. Originally founded in Washington DC, we expanded to San Francisco in 2014

Acceleprise was founded in 2012 by Sean Glass, Allen Gannett, and Collin Gutman. The original office, in Washington, DC, was created in response to lack of resources for early stage enterprise technology companies. Acceleprise later expanded in 2014, with a second fund, to San Francisco. Led by Michael Cardamone, a mentor in the original program, Acceleprise recruited three enterprise leaders as general partners: Rowan Trollope, Nick Mehta, and Theron McCollough
