Backing

The Miami-based early-stage accelerator built around community, acceleration, and capital.

Three connected pillars

Community is at the core of everything we do.
‍
We build and curate this network every day, a place where people share knowledge, make meaningful connections, build together, and gain access to feedback and capital.
‍
There’s a real commitment to one another here. That’s the standard.

Join 401 community

Community

We run highly curated acceleration programs for LatAm founders expanding into the U.S.
‍
Batches are small and intentional. We work closely with each team, bringing in top-level mentors and operators from the global startup ecosystem to support and challenge every founder.
‍
The program ends. The network stays with you.

Acceleration

We back product-led technology companies at pre-seed and seed stage, LatAm founders with global ambition and the discipline to execute.
‍
We also invest in funds and platforms building community and long-term infrastructure around Latin American founders.
‍
Our investments are exclusively reserved for founders who go through our programs.

OUR STORY

The People

Founders and operators connecting at 401

It started in Apartment 401. While Miami kept moving, we chose something else. 
First, we were 4. The next day, we were 10. More people from the ecosystem showed up. 
And that’s when it clicked: the most important deals happen between people. Not on stages. And that’s still 401 today, the right people, building together.

Built to connect you with global ecosystems.

401 Accelerator is a hybrid program running for 4 weeks, combining virtual preparation with an in-person immersion at our headquarters in Miami.

A select group of pre-seed and seed Latin companies is chosen for each edition; a small, exclusive batch we build carefully so we can work close to each founder.

During the program, you'll work on fundraising, go-to-market, product-market fit, corporate innovation, government relations, and investor meetings. We connect you with the network, mentorship, and capital you need to grow.

Five of the startups are chosen by independent investors to pitch live on demo day to Miami's VC ecosystem. 401 investment via a SAFE.
