Opened source website Copied Information under "All Accelerator Programs" to TextPad, already sorted. Returned 190 results Each link on parent list leads to individual home page url of accelerator
- Used sample size of 20 links, determined 16 to be accelerators, 2 to be incubators, 2 to be inactive or broken links
- Each accelerator has an "about" page with information on staff, location, mission statement, philosophy, success, etc. Many links do not offer contact information but rather offer a form to submit.
- Many accelerators do not include founding date, most recent accelerators from around 2013-2014
Review
Reliable source for specific URLs to older accelerators, not very helpful for more specific information. Data crawling seems improbable because information is not readily available from source. Can potentially mine staff information or contact information from associated "about" page
