AUSTIN, Texas – The Brandery on Monday was selected as a Top 10 accelerator in the 2013 Seed Accelerator Rankings announced at the South by Southwest interactive conference.

The Brandery, which launched in 2010, is the 4-month Over-the-Rhine consumer marketing and branding accelerator. Brandery companies have access to office space, mentors and receive a $20,000 investment. The companies then present to hundreds of investors at The Brandery’s Demo Day in the fall.

The Brandery’s work is funded by the Ohio Third Frontier’s One Fund program, and local corporate and civic sponsors. It’s currently accepting applications for its fifth class, which will start work this summer.

The Seed Accelerator Rankings are based on multiple data points, including funding and feedback from venture capitalists, angel investors and entrepreneurs who go through the programs.
