Lair East Labs is a startup accelerator based in New York that empowers founders to expand internationally. At the heart of Lair East Labs lies the 4-month onsite accelerator. Each year 10 startups take on our program and receive investments of up to $150K. Our special 4-month program combines the best of two worlds - learn from alumni founders of top Silicon Valley-style accelerators and gain access to a mentor and investor network with extensive experience navigating the Asian markets. In the first five years of operation, our portfolio companies have raised $45 million of funding after completing the accelerator. At Lair East Labs, we help globally-minded founders scale their companies internationally. Leveraging acceleration, investment and an international community of like-minded people, we support founders in their quest to build successful and sustainable ventures that solve global problems. We are founders accelerating founders.
