This document summarizes statistics about three startup accelerators and incubators: Techstars, Founder Institute, and Y Combinator. It shows that a higher percentage of companies accepted into these programs tend to still be active, indicating acceptance provides a greater chance of success. However, it notes that women and minorities are underrepresented among companies that receive funding. Studies of single-sex vs. coed students show women in single-sex environments have greater academic confidence and interest in fields like engineering. This implies startup programs could better support women and minorities.
