SixThirty, the St. Louis-based fintech accelerator, is now accepting applications for its Fall 2014 Cohort.
The program, launched in 2013 by Square Co-Founder Jim McKelvey (read here), provides selected fintech startups with $100K in funding hands-on mentoring and networking opportunities with the top financial services companies in the country.
SixThirty invests in eight financial-based technology startups each year, generally with less than $5m in funding, four in the fall, and four in the spring.
Applications are due by July, 11, 2014.
According to SixThirty’s Will Eager, “St. Louis is a great location for fintech startups, it is one of the largest financial services hubs outside of New York. It’s home to Edward Jones, Scottrade, Stifel Nicolaus and others. The city boasts one of the most dynamic explosive startup communities in the country“.
