The list of accelerators that we know take equity can be found in \bulk\McNair\Projects\Accelerators\All Relevant Files\accelerator_data_noflag.txt
 
 
This file has 266 rows. The most recent, actual version of our accelerator database (found at McNair\Projects\Accelerators\Summer 2018\Accelerator Master List - Revised by Ed V2.xlsx under the sheet Master Variable List) only has 167 rows, meaning the accelerator_data_noflag.txt file has too many rows.
 
 
You will need to do a left join of Accelerator Master List with accelerator_data_noflag.txt to get rid of the accelerator names that are in accelerator_data_noflag but NOT in Accelerator Master List.
 
 
Once this is finished, you should have an “Equity” classification variable for every accelerator in Accelerator Master List. The accelerators that have a Y (or maybe it’s a 1) are companies that do take equity. These are the companies you’ll be able to do your Crunchbase work on to see when accelerators take equity.

06/22/2018 - Finished going through Accelerator Master Variable List to refine industry classification and update addresses/accelerator statuses.

06/21/2018 - Began manually editing entries in Accelerator Master Variable List. Reached out to Grace and Maxine and sent them the necessary sheets/txt files so they could begin on their Crunchbase project.

I also made these graphics to better represent what our collaborative work would look like, and what the final project would include:
