What it's like at the elite tech accelerator where Stanford grads are launching startups worth millions

Cameron Teitelman, the 26-year-old CEO and founder of StartX, says he's a "nurture-over-nature guy."

The program accepts students, alumni, faculty, and staff of Stanford University, although a few exceptions are made each year.

The perks of being in the program are too many to be counted. Each company receives about $100,000 in infrastructural resources and taps into a network of over 200 serial entrepreneurs, experts, and venture capitalists who volunteer as mentors.
