Incubators: Incubators are organizations that support the development of new businesses by providing resources such as office space, funding, mentoring, and networking opportunities. They help startups grow and succeed during their early stages. Accelerator: An accelerator is a program that provides startups with mentorship, resources, and funding over a fixed period of time, typically several months. The goal is to help these companies grow and scale quickly, often culminating in a demo day or pitch event. Pre-Seed: Pre-Seed typically refers to the very early stage of a startup, when the founding team is working on validating their idea, building a prototype, and getting initial traction. At this stage, startups typically have little to no revenue, and are often seeking initial funding from angel investors, friends and family, or pre-seed venture capital firms. A-Round: In startup financing, a Series A round is typically the first significant round of investment that a startup will receive from venture capital firms or angel investors, after seed capital. This funding round is usually used to help the company scale up and grow its business.
