SUNNYVALE, Calif., Sept. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Plug and Play announced today the selection of 147 new startups into their winter 2020 batches. The startups were selected to join one of the following programs that will run through November 2020: Energy, Fintech, Health, Insurtech, Internet of Things, Mobility, Real Estate & Construction, and Travel & Hospitality.

Startups accepted into these batches will go through a fully virtual program.

"We are excited to start our winter curriculum and see the connections these startups make," said Saeed Amidi, Founder and CEO of Plug and Play. "These companies have shown their potential in the industry and have proven that they are ready to take on the challenges that come with it. They will bring new value and ideas to our existing network of partners and industry leaders."

With the lasting constraints of COVID-19, Plug and Play will continue to operate virtually. Nonetheless, the selected startups will still have full access to Plug and Play's global network of venture capitalists, corporate partners, and alumni. This will allow startups to grow, connect, and engage with some of the top industry leaders. The curriculum will include private one-on-one sessions with partners, mentorship, and access to exclusive online events hosted by Plug and Play.

A virtual graduation for this batch of startups will commence November 16-19th at Plug and Play's Winter Summit.
