Google Accelerators have spent the last decade helping global startups succeed. Kevin O’Toole Global Head of Google Accelerators Sep 09, 2026 Ten years ago, we launched our first accelerator to provide high-potential early-stage startups with equity-free access to Google's technology, products, and expert mentorship. Since then, accelerator alumni have collectively raised $47.8 billion in funding, employ over 205,100 people, and have a combined valuation of $139.2 billion. 1 They’ve grown to become some of the biggest startups in South America, India, Africa, and Southeast Asia. To continue this work, today we run 20 accelerators across six continents under four umbrellas, each with a distinct focus: Google for Startups Accelerator for early-stage startups, Google.org Accelerator for social impact organizations, Google DeepMind Accelerator for AI labs, and Google Play Accelerator for developers. Watch on YouTube to learn how we’re working with some of the top minds in technology to solve complex problems, and get to know the Google Accelerator startups that are making an impact around the globe. 1 PitchBook Data, Inc.
