This is the time to rebuild: as the economy fully reopens in California, the world needs more entrepreneurs to lead the way in creating a brighter future for all.
As a result, the Founder Institute, the world’s largest pre-seed startup accelerator, is excited to announce that it is officially launching its newest chapter in Bolivia. While the Silicon-Valley based program has chapters in over 200 cities worldwide, early-stage entrepreneurs in Bolivia can finally now take advantage of the Founder Institute's renowned structure, mentor support, and network to build an enduring company that will survive and thrive in the new economy.
Applications to the first ever Bolivia Founder Institute are now open, and anyone interested in building an impactful technology company can apply at FI.co/apply/santa_cruz_de_la_sierra.
The Founder Institute provides high-potential entrepreneurs and teams with the support network and structured growth process needed to get to traction and funding, and build something that matters. So whether you already have a business or are still in the idea-phase, now is the time to act.
Since 2009, the Founder Institute has helped over 7,000 Alumni raise over $1.75BN funding, get into seed-accelerators, generate traction, recruit a team, build a product, transition from employee to entrepreneur, and more (see the FI 10 Year Impact Report here).
To celebrate the launch, the Founder Institute will host several free online startup events in Bolivia, where you can learn from top entrepreneurs and hear more about the program from the comfort of your home:
