='''Veeral's Summer Work'''=
==WHAT I'VE DONE==
1) Used the 2013 Crunchbase Snapshot information to find more accelerators using keyword matching and manual researching/googling. Ended up with ~70 new accelerators which were all added to the current list
2) Cohorts were manually obtained for each new accelerator and saved under (E:\McNair\Projects\Accelerators\Data) in the form [Accelerator Name].cohort.txt
3) All new accelerators and corresponding cohorts were added to Cleaned Cohort Data.xls spreadsheet in a new sheet called "Veeral - Updated"
4) Crawled through the Global Accelerator Network (GAN) site to obtain all of the GAN data. The parser, input, and output is located in (E:\McNair\Projects\Accelerators\GAN_Data)
5) Used the Crunchbase "Organizations" data and Whois parser to put together a comprehensive Textfile with all of our current accelerators and information on them (like URL, Location, Creation Date) located in (E:\McNair\Projects\Accelerators\Veeral\Accelerator_Data)
6) Matched existing SDC Platinum VC funding data (located in E:\McNair\Projects\Accelerators\VC Data) with Updated Cohort Data using the Matcher to obtain the Updated AccCo_VC matched file.
7) Copied the Updated AccCo_VC matched file and the Updated Cohort data textfile into the Z:\Accelerators database location.
