In this final session, you will celebrate graduating with your peers, friends and family, as well as select Mentors who will discuss the important leadership qualities needed to run a successful company. You will also learn about all of the post-program resources and assistance that the Founder Institute provides.

  4. Perseverance - Develop a system to press forward, stay focused and deliver value in the dark times inevitable to building a lasting business.
