Betaworks this morning revealed this list of six startups participating in its fourth Camp accelerator program.
Launched in 2016, the program brings together a collection of young companies united under a single theme.This time out, things are focused on live-streaming, for a program fittingly titled, LiveCamp.
Betaworks settled on the topic based on the popularity of apps like Twitch and HQ Trivia.
It admittedly a bit more nebulous than past topics like BotCamp, VoiceCamp and VisionCamp.&When first settling on our next Camp program we knew that ‘live& as a category would be a bit harder to define than our previous themes like voice-computing and augmented reality,& Betaworks& Peter Rojas told TechCrunch, &but while these companies may each be building a wildly differentproduct, they all share a common theme of bringingpeople together in real time for a shared experience.&Betaworks has put together a nice little package for the half-dozen winners, including an 11-week in-house bootcamp and $200K per company.
In addition, Betaworks will receive 8 percent common stock from each.It a fittingly diverse array of companies, running the gamut from gaming to meditation to here the latest batch:Bunch: An app that lets users play games over video chat, from HQ to Flappy Bird.Cityrow Go: On-demand streaming of exercise — kind of a Peloton, but for rowing courses.Content Flow: Live video streaming technology company, with a proprietary player.Cultural Genesis: A digital gaming remix studio from Santa Monica, California.Ghost Commander: A hybrid theater/gaming experience that lets users impact narrative structure.Journey Meditation: On-demand and live-streamed meditation courses.
