Allied Electronics & Automation, a trading brand of RS Group plc (LSE: RS1), a global omni-channel provider of product and service solutions, is pleased to announce the new RS DesignSpark Accelerate program.

RS DesignSpark’s primary mission is to facilitate the advancement of innovators around the world, and the Accelerate program aims to do just that.

By sponsoring inventive startups with amazing concepts, the Accelerate program will help ensure that their ideas jump from paper to prototype at velocity. Accelerate provides the opportunity to fast-track design cycles with access to intuitive software, professional products, and a dedicated environment tailored to each company’s needs. With guidance from talented engineers, innovators, and business entrepreneurs, each startup can be scaled for global launch and graduate the program having realized the next step of their product development.

The search begins! Accelerate is seeking startup companies (local, hybrid, or virtual) inspired to think bigger, test their capabilities, and boost their success in the technology market. The desired applicants will specialize in hardware and software solutions engineered for digital factories, smart buildings and facilities, energy management and efficiency, Industry 4.0, or supply chains.

Applicants will pitch their concepts to technology leaders within the RS DesignSpark organization, and the successful startups will join the Accelerate program at the RS DesignSpark Innovation Center in Bryan-College Station, Texas. In addition to private office space, facilities include an expanding design center, coworking spaces, corporate meeting spaces, and an on-site gym. Participants will also benefit from up to $50,000 of in-kind funding, access to RS Group’s industrial network of manufacturers, suppliers, and customers for investigating product market fit, and on-site and virtual mentorship to guide their venture to its full potential.

“One of my passions is transforming creative ideas and strategies into tangible products, so I am absolutely thrilled to be a part of RS Group’s DesignSpark team and for the opportunity to help entrepreneurs advance their business technologies and strategies,” “I believe the Accelerate program will provide young businesses with excellent growth opportunities as well as provide unique resources for local economic development,”
 said Program Director Nash Porter, a Bryan, Texas, native who’s built his career engaging in the local startup and technology community.
