UNLV has joined the Electrify Nevada Accelerator, a partnership between the Nevada Governor’s Office of Economic Development and global venture firm gener8tor. The accelerator has selected 11 startups in Las Vegas and Reno to support clean energy innovation and the growth of early-stage companies developing technologies in battery storage, sustainable infrastructure, artificial intelligence, and circular economy technologies. Participating startups will gain mentorship, investment opportunities, and access to an international network of investors, researchers, and corporate partners. By connecting Nevada’s two innovation hubs, the program aims to position the Silver State as a national leader in clean energy commercialization and workforce development.
