🌟 Update on 16VC Accelerator Program 🌟 Hi everyone! Due to some changes, the 16VC Accelerator Program will be on hold until December 2024 or January 2025. While we prepare for the launch, we're exploring ways to best support our community of founders during this time. We're considering two options: Create a Founders Community: A space for collaboration, networking, and knowledge sharing. Provide Access to a Workspace: Giving founders a physical space to work and grow together. Which would be more helpful for you? Your feedback will help us tailor the experience! Comment below with your thoughts. Excited for what's to come 🚀 #StartupCommunity #FoundersSupport #16VC

At 16vc, we’ve noticed an increasing number of bot accounts on LinkedIn. Despite submitting a ticket, which promises resolution within 15 days, we are still seeing new bot accounts pop up daily. We kindly request LinkedIn to address this issue as soon as possible, as it continues to disrupt genuine interactions. Thank you for your attention. Microsoft Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation

🌐 Think Before You Believe: Always Ask for Proof 🌐 In today's world, it's easy to take everything we see on the internet at face value. As common people, we often believe what we read without questioning its authenticity. But here's an important reminder—always ask for proof. Whether it's news, offers, or claims, asking for evidence helps ensure that what you're being told is accurate. Misinformation spreads fast, and the best way to protect yourself and others is by verifying the facts. Don’t just accept things as they are—ask questions, seek proof, and make informed decisions. Let’s work together to create a more trustworthy and transparent online space. #StayInformed #AskForProof #FactCheck #Misinformation #CriticalThinking #InternetSafety #TransparencyMatters #QuestionEverything #ThinkSmart #ProtectYourself

🚨 Important Update from 16VC 🚨 It has come to our attention that false information is circulating regarding our accelerator program. Recently, posts on LinkedIn and other platforms have claimed that 16VC is asking for ₹2L INR to join our program. This is completely false. At 16VC, we never charge any fees for participation in our accelerator—our program is 100% tuition-free. If you encounter any such fraudulent claims, please share the proof with us, and we will take immediate action. Additionally, due to this misinformation, our founder’s LinkedIn profile has been temporarily blocked. We are working to restore it as soon as possible. We’d also like to update you that our accelerator program is temporarily on hold while we complete the necessary processes with SEBI and the SEC. We expect to launch by December 2024 or January 2025 and will keep you informed of any changes. Thank you for your patience and continued support. — Team 16VC #Startups #AcceleratorProgram #Entrepreneurship #VentureCapital #NoFees #16VC #SEBI #SEC #StartupSupport #December2024 #January2025 #StayTuned #FounderSupport #FalseClaims
