Your real odds
The inaugural 2022 cohort had six companies, so you are competing for a small number of seats.
The program weighs underrepresented founders and community impact in Los Angeles and Southern California heavily, so strong local ties and a clear health equity mission work in your favor.

Commit to 4–6 hours per week for 10 weeks of programming and bi-weekly mentorship if accepted10 weeks
Worth knowing
This is a zero-equity program, meaning you give up nothing in exchange for mentorship, co-working space, clinical expertise, and subsidized intern support through BioscienceLA's BioFutures program, which makes it lower-risk than most accelerators.
