Having already graduated six classes, Orion Startups this past month announced its upcoming Batch 7.0.

Tecnológico de Monterrey (TEC), often referred to as the MIT of Mexico, and its Chihuahua-based accelerator program have played an important role in driving innovation in the local area.

The upcoming batch includes four new companies working in the AI, Sharing Economy, Bots and Industry 4.0 industries.

One of the startups, Omdena, is building an AI platform for the “invisible” developers to collaborate on AI projects with startups and corporations. The startup’s aim is not only for the projects to take place, but also to encourage base-of-the-pyramid developers to learn throughout real-life problems.

Orion Startups has helped develop over 74 startups that collectively account for more than $42M in sales. The 5-month accelerator program is open to outside applicants from all over the world and has included founders from Canada, Peru, Chile, and India.
