C2M Beta Joins the Global Accelerator Network

Partnership accelerates the resources available to cohort participants

C2M beta, the technology accelerator powered by Blackfoot partnering with startups and innovative corporations to create impact in the Rocky Mountain region, announced today it has joined the Denver-based Global Accelerator Network (GAN).

This is a terrific partnership for C2M beta, our cohort participants and the community as a whole. In addition to being one of only two Montana-based accelerators to join the GAN network, we’re excited to see how our participants leverage GAN’s expanding community and learn how the C2M beta experience can benefit their global accelerator program.”

Joe Fanguy, VP of Strategic Development with Blackfoot and C2M beta Co-Founder

Participants in the C2M beta accelerator will have access and exposure to GAN’s growing corporate and funding relationships. GAN currently has more than 100 accelerators in its community, running programs in more than 120 cities around the world.

Our focus is to connect relationships to resources, ensuring our growing community is able to benefit from a network of startups, corporations and investors rather than from a single organization. Given the background of C2M beta and the team’s approach to connecting their community to more resources, we’re looking forward to how our partnership will benefit our collective programs.”

Patrick Riley, CEO of Global Accelerator Network
