Raleigh's Entrepreneurial Acceleration Lab (REAL) is a non-profit business incubator co-founded by Blake Callens and Josh Anderson in 2013. REAL offers startup companies mentoring, hosting, and working space for free. REAL only supports two sponsored companies at a time and does not take equity from the companies for these services. Sponsored Companies Sweeps.jobs is the first company to be accepted into REAL as a sponsored company. Sweeps completed the program in mid-2014. During its time in the accelerator, Sweeps won the 2013 Chapel Hill Business of the Year Award, launched a new website, and began expansion into other cities.
