Ten Startups Pitch at Techstars Impact Demo Day in Austin

General News

Summary

For the past three months, Cowtribe Cofounders Peter Awin and Alima Bawah, have rented apartments throughout Austin after moving more than 6,000 miles from Ghana to participate in the Techstars Impact program. “We’ve gone from one apartment to another trying to understand the culture here.” Cowtribe participated in the second annual Techstars Impact Accelerator, which held its Demo Day last Thursday at the Austin Central Library. Techstars Impact backs for-profit, mission-driven founders building tech to solve social and environmental problems, said Zoe Schlag, managing director of the program. With AgHelp employers pay a monthly subscription to post jobs which allows them to source labor nationally, said Feliciano Paredes, its founder. The company created an artificial intelligence-powered app, AskMia, to make sure a doctor’s schedule stays full and that patients don’t miss appointments.
