Equity-free corporate support, with the trade elsewhere
When a large technology company runs an equity-free accelerator, it is not buying shares — it is building affinity with companies that will spend on its cloud, ads and tooling for years. That is a fair trade and worth naming: the program costs no dilution, and it tends to deepen a startup's dependence on one vendor's infrastructure.
Who it suits
Companies with a working product and some traction that want technical support and credibility without giving up equity, and that are already committed to that vendor's stack.
