Hi there.
Hi there.
Did you know that 92% of early-stage startups FAIL?
That. Is. Stupid. 😠
When I was a founder, I saw this and it blew my mind. 5 years later this stat has barely moved. WTF.
In this day and age with every resource at our finger tips. How is this possible? ...Things systemically are very, very off.
Reviewing hundreds of startup post mortems... it's crazy to me that a huge amount of all the contributing failure factors were avoidable things. Not awesome.
I was also surprised to learn even though so many were surrounded by people... many still wished they had more guidance. “Focus and lack of direction are the biggest challenges to startups”. Speed and timing are crucial, mis-steps are costly.
So, we're hyper focused on helping founders level up & get a better shot at being in the 8%
So! Bring your questions! Accelerators aren't for everyone, is it right for you? Does everyone need to want the VC route? How's it different? What's the program structure like? We'll be ready. =)
We're really looking forward to meeting you.
