Qualcomm Launches Small Business Accelerator

San Diego-based Qualcomm Technologies has launched a new program to help small businesses move towards the "mobile-first" world, the company said last week. According to Qualcomm, its Qualcomm Small Business Accelerator Program will offer up products powered by Qualcomm Technologies solutions, plus collaboration tools and technical and integration support, so they can continue to maintain operations throughout the current global pandemic and beyond. The company said the program--being run with the support of Best Buy Business, Microsoft, Verizon Business, and others--will provide up to $25,000 in products and technical support to approximately 25 small businesses. The company said the products will include cellular-connected laptops, Wi-Fi systems, mobile phones, Bluetooth enabled headsets and active mobile hotspots, along with technical / device integration and support.
