What makes our reporting different
Most SME programmes report attendance, satisfaction and stories. Accelera measures each business before it starts and again at the end — revenue, customers, pipeline, and which systems are in place — then checks every claim against an artifact, reviewed by a named person. Aggregates are only reported where five or more businesses are in the group, and never with names attached. The first outcome report, covering Season 1, is published in January 2027 and includes what did not work.
LIVE
Sponsored seats
Fund seats for businesses that cannot pay. Sponsored members receive exactly what every other member receives, and the sponsor receives the same anonymised outcome reporting as any other partner.
