Get the Desk Promotion mug.1. A company or non-profit organization set up to serve the egos of its founder(s). All of its activities, while often disguised as doing "good" for society, tech start-ups, the poor, etc., is done to enhance, flatter and inflate the founder's overly important fragile self-image of him or herself.
It's obvious the tech accelerator is solely a narcissist promotion vehicle (NPV). Its website mentions its founder 95 times and only has videos of young women talking breathlessly about its 'genius' founder - - yet 99 % of its 'members' are dudes.
