Offline Location: BBB Bürgschaftsbank Berlin, Franklinstraße 6, 10587 Berlin

We expect to see around 10 companies graduating from a wide array of topics ranging from bringing art back into your lives, a lifechanging solution to find the best cancer treatment, the best way to reuse fashion waste all the way to a platform that helps you extend your healthy lifespan! This is the last chance to see the Spring 2025 cohort in its entirety and the first chance to see them as Founder Institute graduated companies!

The Founder Institute startup accelerator is an extremely challenging program, and graduating is a significant achievement. In fact, less than 40% of applicants are accepted to the program, and less than 30% of those generally make it through. Being a Founder Institute Graduate Company is a seal of approval, signifying that company's founders, mission, model, and plans are being validated by experienced startup CEOs.

Who Should Attend?

Angel investors, early-stage venture capital firms, Founder Institute Mentors, Graduates, friends and family are all invited to attend. You are welcome to share this link with interested friends and colleagues. As we will announce opening of our next batch bound to start in March, entrepreneurs interested in founding a new company are also very welcome!
