Sandwiched between rows of warehouses in the South Boston Waterfront, MassRobotics serves as both an incubator and import hub for the city’s vibrant robotics community. Soon, it will add accelerator to that list. This morning the nonprofit announced the forthcoming arrival of its simply named MassRobotics Accelerator.
Applications are now open for the 13-week program, which focuses on early-stage robotics startups — particularly those operating in hardware, components and applications. Companies accepted into the incubator will received $100,000 in non-dilutive funding. The funding comes by way of MassTech, an organization developed to foster technology in the state.
