Dear Marcel, for the purpose of understanding which Accelerator fits you better you should visit our website: www.fiware.org. please go to separator Accelerators. Than you should select the domain you would like to apply your idea (it should be according to the one that fits better your product/company strategy and competences). You will always have several Acceleration Programs. Each program has its own specifications, duration, requirements, investment, support... once again you must understand which would fit better your product strategy.
