Blackbox is an accelerator committed to helping non-US startups build their companies. The firm's two-week immersion program is known as Blackbox Connect, where founders come to Silicon Valley for the two weeks and have the opportunity to live and collaborate with like-minded entrepreneurs from all around the world. Accepted startups must have launched a technology based MVP and gathered feedback from early adopter/customers. Ideally, a startup should have raised some investment capital, have a team between 3 to 20 people and have a product or service that can be launched globally. Blackbox was founded in 2010.
