Today we’re updating our weekly newsletter to place a stronger emphasis on events and accelerator programs.

Event organizers have added thousands of events to CrunchBase since we launched our events platform in October. You’ll find events highlighted on our homepage, on the profiles of people participating in those events, and, of course, in our newsletters.

Soon we’ll begin localizing these newsletters in order to provide more relevant information around upcoming events, accelerator deadlines, and demo days.

Three events are featured in this week’s Startup Calendar:

• Sime MIA
• GMIC Silicon Valley 2014
• Digiday Brand Summit

As well as ten accelerator programs:

• DreamIt Ventures
• TiE LaunchPad
• MergeLane
• UpWest Labs
• Work-Bench
• Acceleprise Ventures
• MuckerLab
• JFE Accelerator
• Microsoft Ventures
• Barclays Accelerator

Read the weekly newsletter for more… To take part in this program as an organization that hosts startup events, visit the Startup Calendar page for guidelines and send us an email at events@crunchbase.com. We look forward to hearing from you!
