St. Louis entrepreneurs launch $800,000 accelerator program for startups

SixThirty, a new financial services tech accelerator, launched Tuesday and plans to pump $800,000 into financial-based startups each year for at least three years.

Backed by the St. Louis Regional Chamber and Cultivation Capital, SixThirty will accept four startups in both its fall and spring classes. Each of those startups will receive a $100,000 investment and take part in a four-month accelerator program, which will offer hands-on training and mentoring from business leaders in the area.
