Welcome to the Innovation Pipeline Accelerator Website. (IPA) - a free service to companies in Connecticut with:

  • under $10 million in sales,
  • an innovative product or service,
  • and the potential to grow quickly.

The Innovation Pipeline Accelerator (IPA) is an assembled database of early stage companies, designed to save business hours in obtaining support and maintaining contact with their team of supporters. If accepted into the Program, you will be provided with your own Team Site -- a Facebook for Emerging Companies, but you determine who to network with, and how often!


Benefits of IPA Membership:

Team Site - Use it as a place to build work groups, share documents, and request assistance. It has many levels of security so you can create private and public data.

Support Community - includes funding sources, service providers, potential employees, and public agencies managers. When you need help you can post a request here and they will contact you! You will no longer have to sort through all the program brochures to become an expert on who can help you grow.

Educational Resources - View a variety of 'how-to' presentations delivered by leaders in successful business management. For valuable information and practical guidance,

FastTrack Program -
Just one example of the exclusive support IPA members receive; the FastTrack Program identifies from the IPA Company database a select group of high potential and most promising technology companies, in terms of achieving significant revenue growth in the next twelve months. These companies receive extensive support and services on a priority basis.

Investor Resources -The Angel Investor Forum organizes the resources of Angels by streamlining the deal flow. Monthly, we review two targeted, pre-screened companies that are matched to investor interests. We are committed to attracting entrepreneurs from outside of the state, and driving Connecticut's economic development.
