Passionate Academics are the Future Therefore, we have built a platform that connects students with companies - and the first thing we are going to fix is the thesis collaboration issue.
Current status
Excelerate is in the very early days of the startup journey. Due to COVID-19 we have been delayed slightly from an anticipated April launch to the new August launch of the complete beta version. We have just launched the marketing site (a couple of landing pages) which we are very excited about - and this is where you come in (more on that in a second).
The August launch will be the big one as students who are finishing their degree in summer 2021 will be looking to match with companies from August - December in 2020.
We have a few big marketing tracks kicking off when the site launches in August. One of them will be the launch of our blog. We intend to build a leading web blog on and around how to write the perfect thesis / final paper on Bachelor / Master level.
You get the chance to join a startup from the very early days and that also implies that you will get a lot of responsibility. You will be involved in how and what we do with the blog.
