Featured Grad
From our Silicon Valley chapter, Udemy is the global leader in online learning, with nearly 200,000 courses. The company went public on the NASDAQ in October 2021, raising $421 million.
The real question is: can the Founder Institute be game-changing for your startup? The answer is yes. Without FI, Udemy may have never raised any money.
