LaunchKC is continuing to scale up impact in 2021 by proudly forming a partnership with Keystone Labs that centers around collaborating on industry-focused business accelerators. EDC created the LaunchKC initiative in 2015 in partnership with the Downtown Council, and this partnership with Keystone represents a great opportunity to scale the initiative and better serve the companies entering the program.
Through this partnership, LaunchKC will be positioned to expand into more industries, grow its mentorship base, and provide more access to capital to promising startups and entrepreneurs who represent the next generation of great Kansas City businesses. LaunchKC will be alongside major corporations exploring accelerators in the areas of insurance, fin tech, sustainable energy, and healthcare.
