Georgia Tech's ATDC incubates and accelerates technology companies across Georgia. Founders receive coaching, curriculum, corporate and investor connections, and access to university and state innovation resources. The current record reflects the operator's official program positioning as of 2026-08-08; historical origin details were omitted where the operator did not publish them on the checked pages.
