The program is open to existing and prospective technology founders of all kinds – with or without an idea, young or old, and with a full-time job or unemployed. Those who apply by the Early Application Deadline (October 20) will have their application fees waived (typically $50) and are eligible for Founder Institute Fellowships.
The Founder Institute is an early-stage startup accelerator and global launch network that, in just three years of operation, has helped launch over 900 companies across 50 cities and six continents. Through our part-time four month program, existing and prospective founders can launch their dream company with expert training, feedback, and support from experienced startup CEOs - while not being required to quit their day job. Our unique Graduate Liquidity Pool also enables graduates and mentors to share in the equity upside of each class, creating strong teamwork-based startup ecosystems where great companies can flourish. We call it "Globalizing Silicon Valley."
