isPermaLink="false">http://blog.shedd.us/post/321987608#comment-648</guid> <description>I would like to introduce you to a new accelerator model in Princeton, Nj.
The Innovation Garden, LLC,
located in the Princeton Forrestal Village, will accelerate the growth and
development of the most promising young companies and technologies in New
Jersey through the unique capabilities of the Innovation Garden Accelerator
Program (IGAP) and financed by the Innovation Garden Accelerator Fund (IGAF).
The Innovation Garden will uniquely fill the gap in financing and hands-on
advisory and business support services for the two earliest phases of a
company’s lifecycle: seed stage and early stage. The vision of the founders is
to create a best-in-the-nation business model that:
-         
attracts
and screens for high-opportunity company candidates
-         
achieves
industry-leading graduation rates of member companies
-         
achieves
higher returns for investors with mitigated risk
-         
creates
a branded solution that will sustain and grow value for investors and managers
IGA enrolled companies will be housed onsite and advised on business
strategies and development actions to hone product development, implement successful
marketing plans, accelerate revenue and drive profits over a two to three year
timeline. IGA’s corporate development program sets specific milestones and
supports the achievement of accelerated growth rates for member companies
through strategic resource allocation and disciplined business plan execution.
The Innovation Garden Accelerator Program (IGAP)
is a highly structured advisory program which provides strategic business
development, operations management, brand marketing, and digital marketing
services to accelerate product awareness, sales, and operational efficiency.
The program is administered by executives and equity advisors whom are leaders
in their respective industry with proven business development track records and
can lead member companies to accelerated organic growth.  IGA portfolio companies and executive
administrators are housed together in a collaborative and creative communal
work environment geared to promote the exchange of ideas with like minded entrepreneurs
to the end of building dynamic businesses. IGA executive administrators take an
active role in mentoring and developing member ideas and strategies and ensure
that entrepreneurs stay focused on core activities to achieve agreed
milestones.
