Demo Day Startup UCLA Summer Accelerator 2026

Startup UCLA Summer Accelerator 2026 Demo Day

Join us for Startup UCLA’s Summer Accelerator 2026 Demo Day, an in-person showcase featuring the next generation of entrepreneurs and startups.

After a summer of building, testing, and refining their ventures, our accelerator founders are taking the stage to share what they’ve created. Meet the teams, hear their pitches, and connect with fellow founders, investors, mentors, and members of the UCLA and Los Angeles startup communities.

Whether you’re an investor looking for emerging companies, an entrepreneur interested in what’s being built at UCLA, or simply curious about the future of innovation, Demo Day is an opportunity to discover new ideas and meet the people behind them.

Come for the pitches. Stay for the conversations and connections.
