The Company Lab (CO.LAB) + gener8tor have selected the five startups for its second Sustainable Mobility Accelerator cohort.

Each startup will temporarily relocate to Chattanooga for the 12-week program aimed at helping these businesses scale their ventures.

The startups each receive an initial $20,000 investment, with the potential for adding up to $100,000 in follow-up funding.

The Spring 2024 cohort includes:

  • SensFlo | La Jolla, CA | Software
  • WEAV3D | Norcross, GA | Manufacturing technology
  • RueData | Mexico City, Mexico | Software
  • Moduly | Montreal, Canada | Smart energy storage
