Hello! My name is Yuval Yarden, I’m the host of The Keystone, and this is The Keystone show notes where we list all the resources (and sprinkle in a few additional ones) so that you can continue your exploration and connect with the people you heard from on the show!

In this week’s episode we’ll pick apart the concept of accelerator, understand what works, whats changing and where the future may take us. I’m excited to dive into a conversation with Beth McKeon, founder of Fluent. She’s taken a deep dive into accelerators, and is thinking outside of the box on about how we can redesign the experience to make it as impactful as possible for our entrepreneurs.
