PwC’s Accelerator, the first international platform designed to help companies go global faster and smarter, is inviting innovative and fast-growing companies to apply for a chance to present to an audience of institutional investors  and large corporations interested in sourcing innovation at its upcoming “Local to Global” Expo which will be held on 20 November 2014 in Luxembourg.

In addition to providing a forum for ten companies to showcase themselves, the Expo will offer a unique opportunity to network with industry thought leaders. Entrepreneurs will be able to enhance their professional reputation and increase the visibility of their company. Not only will they have an opportunity to build strong investor relationships and corporate relations, they will also benefit from valuable media exposure, on both a local and an international level.

To apply to the Expo, companies must complete an online application by 15 September 2014. Selection process and conditions are available on PwC’s Accelerator website.

All applications will be reviewed by a selection committee of independent international judges who will select the ten finalists. These top ten companies will be invited to participate in a comprehensive “Accelerator coaching programme” to gear up for the final presentations.
