We’re proud to announce that YC World, a global investigation and due diligence platform and an alumnus of UK-Ukraine TechBridge Investment Accelerator, has become an official due diligence partner of 1991 Accelerator.
1991 Accelerator backs Ukrainian startup founders wherever they build. With over 100 active alumni building products worldwide, our community is growing rapidly; yet, we want to welcome only those who share our principles. We aim to work only with teams and partners who reject cooperation with Russian or Belarusian entities and operate with full transparency and integrity. This partnership strengthens our ability to do exactly that.
From now on, 1991 Accelerator will use YC World’s tools to conduct enhanced due diligence on startups across all programs to verify startups and their founders for links to Russia or Belarus, sanctions exposure, hidden affiliations and indirect control, ownership, and beneficiary structures.
Recently, YC World was officially incorporated in London, following the completion of the UK-Ukraine TechBridge Investment Accelerator in June.
YC World provides global investigative search and visualisation of business connections, helping uncover hidden risks and validate legitimacy.
We encourage other accelerators, funds, corporates, and founders to take the same approach: to back yourself with solutions that help you know whether companies are transparent and fully aligned with your position and values.
