Techstars Welcomes the 2021 Barclays Accelerator Companies

Jan 28, 2021

By Jennifer Jordan, Managing Director of the New York Barclays Accelerator, powered by Techstars

We are excited to introduce the 2021 class of fintech and enterprise tech startups that will join the New York Barclays Accelerator, powered by Techstars. With more than 180 alumni companies, we are one of the largest single-bank fintech portfolios globally, with a portfolio valuation of over $1.8 billion. Turbulent times give most of us every reason to be cautious. The founders of the class of 2021 see these times as the opportunity to take risk, focus, and build. Many of them are bringing to market solutions to meet the urgent needs of consumers and banks facing a rapidly evolving economic recovery. Barclays and Techstars stand ready together to help them do more faster to get us there sooner. It’s with the utmost respect for the founders and their tenacity, drive, creativity, and resourcefulness, that I introduce the companies selected for our 2021 class.
