Seeking startups building the next big thing in
5G health and fitness technologies
T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) continues its mission to fuel 5G
innovation, with applications now open for the Fall 2021 T-Mobile
Accelerator Wellness Technology Program. T-Mobile Accelerator is
actively searching for startups developing the next big thing in 5G
technologies that promote healthy living and improve quality of
life, from personal fitness wearables that enhance sports
performance to telehealth services, digital wellness applications,
biomedical monitoring and more. The application window closes June
25, 2021 and the fall program begins August 9, 2021.
"Consumers care deeply about wellness and that interest
continues to grow," said John Saw, EVP of Advanced & Emerging
Technologies at T-Mobile. "5G is a powerful enabler, helping us to
more deeply understand our own health and stay better connected to
services that improve our quality of life."
Companies participating in T-Mobile Accelerator will work
directly with technology and business leaders at T-Mobile as they
build, test and bring to market new products and services that
unleash the potential of T-Mobile 5G. The fall program runs through
early November 2021 and will culminate in a Demo Day where
participants showcase their accomplishments.
T-Mobile Accelerator serves as a hub for driving ideas,
innovation and action. Focused on collaborative experiences for
growth, it delivers year-round programming and activities,
including entrepreneurial and tech community engagements, expert
speakers and mentorship sessions. Since its inception, the T-Mobile
Accelerator has worked with 67 startup companies that have raised
an aggregate of nearly $80 million since participating in the
program. Additionally, 82% of the alumni companies are still in
business today.
T-Mobile 5G, A Platform for Innovation
T-Mobile is America’s 5G leader with the largest, fastest and
most reliable 5G network. T-Mobile’s Extended Range 5G covers 295
million people across 1.6 million square miles — that’s 2x the
geographic coverage of AT&T and 4x more than Verizon. And with
Sprint now part of T-Mobile, the Un-carrier is widening its lead,
lighting up Ultra Capacity 5G across the country, bringing fast 5G
speeds to more places than anyone else. Ultra Capacity 5G can
deliver speeds around 300 Mbps with peaks of 1 Gbps, and now covers
140 million people.
Amazing new 5G products and services are quickly being built,
and they require a 5G network with capacity and broad reach, one
that’s being built to support virtually all types of use cases and
provide unprecedented reach. It’s called #5GForAll and only
T-Mobile can build it. With its supercharged 5G network as the
foundation, T-Mobile is fueling 5G innovation and building the 5G
ecosystem with a number of initiatives. The Un-carrier collaborates
with universities and standards bodies to support 5G research and
development. It recently expanded its award-winning T-Mobile
Accelerator in collaboration with Georgia Tech and Curiosity Lab at
Peachtree Corners, it operates the T-Mobile Ventures investment
fund and it is a co-founder of the 5G Open Innovation Lab.
