• List of Preliminary Accelerators
  • Original Location: Accelerator Seed List (Data)
  • Description: This is the very first master list we compiled of potential accelerators. Look to Accelerator Seed List (Data) for process.
  • Variables: Names of potential accelerators
• accelerator_data_noflag
  • Original Location: Bulk(E:)\McNair\Projects\Accelerators\Spring 2017\Code+Final_Data
  • Description: This text file contains the data on all accelerators that we found from our first round of research that were not flagged. It consolidates the data collected by all McNair Center interns, filtering out the organizations which are not accelerators.
  • Variables: Name, Score, Flag, CohortURL, Address, Duration, Vintage, Industry, Description, Equity, Nonprofit, Notes
• New Crunchbase Accelerators
  • Original Location: Bulk(E:)\McNair\Projects\Accelerators\Spring 2017
  • Description: After conducting some SDC matches with cohort data from the cohort companies of the accelerators in the accelerator_data_noflag text file, we realized many potential accelerators were missing. We then got an Excel file from Crunchbase containing all of its organizations, which we then sorted to identify potential missing accelerators. The accelerators we were actually missing are in this Excel file.
  • Variables: Names of Missing Accelerators
• Cleaned Cohort Data
  • Original Location: Bulk(E:)\McNair\Projects\Accelerators\Fall 2017
