Meet the 2026 mPOWER Cohort
11 Early-Stage Founders Join the 2026 mPOWER Program at mHUB mHUB welcomes a new cohort of early-stage startups to the 2026 mPOWER program, a four-month pre-accelerator program designed to help hardtech and physical product entrepreneurs build a stronger foundation and accelerate through the earliest stage. Through structured programming, dedicated support from Experts-in-Residence, peer collaboration, and a shared workspace membership, participants will test the assumptions behind their ventures and develop a deeper understanding of the problem they are solving, the customers they aim to serve, and the market opportunity ahead. The 2026 cohort is organized into two tracks, HardTech and Energy & Sustainability. Throughout the program, startups will evaluate their ventures through three key lenses: desirability, feasibility, and viability. By the conclusion of mPOWER, participants will have greater clarity on product-market fit, an initial product roadmap, a view of key milestones for the next six to 12 months, and the foundation needed to make more informed decision
