These 11 startups are entering the fall cohort of FounderTrac in Annapolis

Annapolis-based FounderTrac is planning to hold its second curriculum-based cohort to help startups build a business this fall.
Organizers of the program at LAUNCH! Annapolis, Maryland Tech Council and MCVC Partners announced a new group of 11 companies this week.
After a pilot in 2017, the program received $125,000 in funding from TEDCO late last year, helping it to expand for 2018. An initial cohort for 2018 was held in the winter, culminating in $25,000 in funding for Milemarker.
Organizers received 60 applications for the fall cohort, and a panel of judges conducted virtual interviews to decide the finalists.
Over the 12 weeks, startups will attend sessions and work through a curriculum focused various aspects of building a business like idea validation, sales and product development. They are also matched with an “executive Sherpa” who provides mentorship.
