Introducing the AI Academy: American Infrastructure

Google for Startups has unveiled a groundbreaking initiative called the AI Academy: American Infrastructure program. This new, equity-free program is tailored for startups that leverage AI to enhance U.S. infrastructure.

What Participants Will Gain

Over a span of twelve weeks, startups will receive intensive, hands-on training from AI experts. The program includes an in-depth AI curriculum developed by Google’s People + AI Research (PAIR) team. Furthermore, startups will participate in advanced sales and go-to-market workshops designed to boost their commercial success.

Additionally, participants will have access to cutting-edge Google AI tools, exclusive insights, and industry connections. These resources will continue to benefit them as they join the Google for Startups alumni community after the program concludes.

Focus Areas

The program is open to U.S.-based startups that operate in a variety of critical industries.

One of the startups already supported by Google for Startups is Detroit-based JustAir, which uses AI to monitor air quality. Another example is Cambio, focused on decarbonizing commercial real estate. There’s also Sensagrate, which aims to reduce traffic fatalities by leveraging AI technology.

Support Beyond the Program

Google for Startups ensures that the support doesn’t end when the program does. As part of the alumni community, companies will continue to benefit from Google’s resources and networks. This ongoing support is designed to help startups maintain their forward momentum and continue to innovate.

In addition to expert guidance and advanced tools, these startups will gain valuable industry connections. These connections can provide the ongoing support necessary for the startups to scale their solutions and achieve broader impacts in their respective fields.
