Google has announced the launch of its Google for Startups Accelerator: Voice AI program, aimed at supporting startups that harness voice technology for impactful solutions.

The accelerator will connect selected North American startups with Google experts, focusing on product development and machine learning to overcome technical challenges. Set to begin in March 2021, the program will host a cohort of 10 to 12 startups, with applications open until January 28, 2021.
