The Vive X accelerator is now accepting a second round of applications from start-ups interested in virtual reality. First announced earlier this year, Vive X is a $100 million fund set up by HTC to invest in and help develop new VR content. 

Beyond financial assistance, Vive X also grants partners access to advanced VR tech, mentorship, networking opportunities, coaching, and investors. 

The accelerator has worked with around three dozen partners since first opening applications in April, including Opaque Studios, SurrealVR, Apmetrix.

Vive X currently operates out of Bejing, San Francisco, Taipei, and ShenZhen but will be adding new European locations to the program in the future. Developers interested in the accelerator can fill out an application on the Vive X website. The deadline for applications is December 1.
