Inside Upwest Labs, The Startup Accelerator That Brings Israel To Silicon Valley [TCTV]
There is certainly no shortage of startup incubators and accelerators these days, but Silicon Valley's Upwest Labs is doing something especially unique. Upwest, which got off the ground in January, focuses on entrepreneurs with Israeli roots -- it brings them to Palo Alto, California for three months where they work around the clock to amp up their existing startups to Silicon Valley speed. Earlier this month Upwest held the demo day for its second-ever batch of companies, so we stopped by its office in the days after to get a firsthand feel for the program and see some of the companies that are now graduating out of the second class. In the video embedded above, you can watch our interview with Upwest Labs' co-founder Shuly Galili, and after the jump you can watch our video interviews with a handful of Upwest startups.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/hoDGp2T2cDE/
