This year, 40 promising startups from around the world will be selected to participate in the program, which is scheduled to launch on October 13, 2025 at Amazon’s headquarters in Seattle. The registration period is from June 10 to July 10, and the list of selected startups will be announced on September 24, 2025.
As generative AI (Gen AI) tools become more widely available, AWS is focusing its efforts in 2025 on supporting startups developing generative AI technologies, including the models, infrastructure, refinement tools, and agentic workflows that will drive the next wave of innovation. The program aims to accelerate these teams with up to $1 million in AWS credits, technical guidance and mentorship, go-to-market support, and access to the AWS generative AI ecosystem.
“We are entering a phase where virtually every startup will be using generative AI in some form for their business,” said Jon Jones, Vice President and Global Head of Startups at AWS. “So with this year’s accelerator, we are focusing on supporting startups that are developing the foundational technologies that will shape the future potential of AI. This year’s program is part of our ongoing commitment to fostering innovation in generative AI globally by providing disruptive startups with credit support, mentorship, and opportunities to scale with confidence.”
The AWS Generative AI Accelerator is an eight-week hybrid program that includes alternating online sessions during a live opening day at Amazon’s Seattle headquarters and a program culmination at AWS re:Invent 2025. Startups developing large language models (LLMs), infrastructure tools, model-tuning platforms, or platform agents are especially encouraged to apply.
Companies need to have a Minimum Viable Product (MVP), initial user or market feedback, and a strong technical team. No prior AWS experience is required, but startups building on AWS will have a significant advantage with direct support for system architecture and market access.
The 2025 program will continue AWS’s global commitment to inclusion and diversity, with selected companies from North America, Asia Pacific , Japan, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, and Latin America. The program will include industry-specific mentorship and specialized support for startups building platforms, providing infrastructure, or innovating at the application level.
