At Facebook, our focus has long been to bring people together and build community. We are committed to the startup ecosystem and believe that by connecting, training, and growing entrepreneurs through our programs, Facebook can empower people to solve relevant, meaningful problems.
In this critical time, Facebook is doubling down on commerce and accelerating its work to enable every business to sell online and help people gain inspiration, discover and buy the products they love. Our commerce vision is one unified shopping experience across all Facebook apps. We can’t achieve this alone, so we are looking for startups to build technology with us.
Facebook Accelerator: Commerce is a 12-week non-equity program supporting innovative commerce startups who renew shopping experiences for buyers and sellers.
It is our priority to keep building our business by supporting the millions of businesses that rely on our services to grow. By supporting talented startups, we make more impact toward our own mission, deepen our understanding of the challenges that startups are working to solve, and grow our network of future partners.
We offer you equity-free support in return for helping us achieve these goals.
Our greatest strength is our people. We offer startups access to some of the most brilliant and experienced technical and business experts at Facebook. Our mentors include previous CEOs, successful startup founders, and technology experts with over 20 years of experience.
