Austin Technology Incubator Director Mitch Jacobson spoke with KUT about Austin’s wealth of resources for startups and ATI’s commitment to “deep tech.”
“Whoever is an entrepreneur in Austin is lucky, because of the amount of resources we have in the city for entrepreneurs, between the accelerators and incubators and events like South By Southwest and events that go on any day of the week,” said Jacobson. He said Austin now has many options for entrepreneurs, and organizations cooperate to find the best fit for each startup.
Regarding ATI’s role, Jacobson said the incubator now focuses on what they call “deep tech.” “We’re working on technology that solves big problems with big solutions, so, energy technology, water technology, infrastructure technology and the biosciences: drugs, medical and diagnostic equipment.”
