Tech Accelerator

If you’re a SaaS entrepreneur or an existing business with a ground-breaking new idea, the IDS technology accelerator programme can help you with both the technical delivery aspects of your project, as well as the onward steps involved in growing your market share.

From securing seed or pre-seed funding, launching the application and attracting initial clients, through to creating a future development roadmap, making fresh industry contacts, reducing all elements of associated risk and preparing for early series A investment, we can support you with a comprehensive, six-month strategy, proven to help technology start-ups thrive.

Accelerator programme

We know we’re asking you to trust us with something extremely important to you. So, we need to explain how our start-up accelerator programme works.

While no two projects are ever exactly the same, we’ve worked with a number of start-ups in sectors ranging from healthcare to construction, and finance to ecommerce. And we’ve identified that while nuances naturally exist from one brief to the next, there are many non-negotiable stages to progress through – each with their own processes, objectives and outputs – on the road to building a successful, scalable software business.

This is the key to what makes IDS different. There are many software development houses out there. But few offer expertise beyond the initial phase, which means the onward success of the product is wholly on you. We’re consultant-first solutions architects, passionate about both the immediate and long-term growth potential of your technology, whether you retain us as your ongoing technical partner or not.

We want to develop generation-defining technologies. So, we’re not looking for hundreds of new clients – or even dozens. Instead, we’re keen to put our industry-leading technical minds to great use, on start-up briefs that inspire, excite and challenge us.

Sometimes we get so involved we become a long-term invested resource in these organisations. On other occasions, we simply deliver everything the client needs to thrive before they continue on their growth trajectory. Either way, we’re ‘all in’. And there’s no other space we’d rather be.

Why IDS?

Proven track record
Passionate about purposeful technologies
Commercially savvy and results focused
Established incubation network

Highly certified nearshore software developers
Maximum security and quality assurances
Human – we enjoy the projects we embark on.

One of the reasons IDS stands out in such a congested space, is by providing an outsourced CTO and engineering service that feels like a true extension of an organisation’s technical team. This is beneficial for large, established enterprises, who need to validate or overhaul the robustness and scalability of their systems and integrations.

But it’s also especially valuable for businesses in their more embryonic stages of growth. We’re not just talking about helping start-ups create their first MVPs – we’re talking about going into these businesses and empowering them with technology so that they become self-sustaining and rich in growth potential. This value-added partnership approach is an attractive proposition from the perspective of potential funders too, as investment risks are minimised.
