We'd like to congratulate the recent graduates of the Fall 2010 Washington DC, Brussels, and New York City Semesters.
Washington DC graduated 10 companies, Brussels graduated 13, and New York City graduated 15.
A special thanks goes out to the the local facilitators, who guide the companies on their path to launch:
-
Washington DC: Tonya Harmon
-
Brussels: Misha Chellam, and Walter de Brouwer
-
New York City: Gabe Zichermann
Graduating from the Founder Institute is challenging - we accept a small percentage of applicants into the program, and only about half of the enrolled founders make it to graduation. Every company that graduates from the program participates in an equity Bonus Pool, and is able to leverage the Founder Institute's service provider discounts, media and investment support, special events, and alumni and mentor networks.
We look forward to launching more companies in 2011!
