# Questions about startup accelerators? Here are some lengthy, often meandering answers

I had the opportunity to host an AMA session for my day job [PIE](https://piepdx.com/), yesterday. And what was scheduled to be an hour-long Q&A session wound up going almost twice that long. Lots of good questions. Lots of not-so-direct answers. But if you’re interested in the world of startup accelerators, I sincerely hope you find some value in it.
