BOULDER – MergeLane, the Boulder-based startup accelerator geared toward women-led companies, has unveiled its second class of 10 startups that will go through the 12-week program.

MergeLane’s second cohort begins Monday and culminates with an April 21 demo day in front of investors and community members at Boulder Theater.

Similar to other accelerators like Techstars, Mergelane offers startups $20,000 in seed funding and the intensive mentorship programming in exchange for 6 percent equity. Startups can also receive up to $100,000 in additional funding at the end of the program.

The program is unique in that it requires the entrepreneurs to be in Boulder only for the first two weeks and final one week of the program, with an optional week in the middle. The rest of the program is run remotely.

Last year’s initial MergeLane class of eight startups has raised more than $11 million in funding.

Founded by Sue Heilbronner and Elizabeth Kraus, MergeLane took in two more startups this year after reaching out to more than 1,500 companies as part of its prescreening process.

“The quality of our class is a clear reflection of the success of our first year and our aggressive outreach,” Heilbronner said in a release.
