Graduates in past Founder Institute semesters have always been our leading source for new applicants, and we want to keep this great word-of-mouth momentum going. So, we're announcing a new Founder Referral Program today designed give you access to investors and the media at our quarterly Founder Showcase event. 

  • Refer one accepted Founder, and get a free ticket ($50 value) to an upcoming Founder Showcase event of your choosing.
  • Refer two accepted Founders, and get two free tickets ($100 value) to an upcoming Founder Showcase event of your choosing.
  • Refer three accepted Founders, and get a free Pitch Table ($400 value) to an upcoming Founder Showcase event of your choosing.

Just make sure your referrals list your name in the Referral Box of their application form, and we'll take care of the rest.

The San Diego Closing Application Deadline is Wednesday, March 31st at 11:59pm PST - so this is your first opportunity to drive referrals. If you know anybody in the San Diego/ Orange County area who is interested in entrepreneurship and can benefit from great services and mentorship, tell them to apply here (and make sure they list your name as the referral).

Next up is the Denver Closing Application Deadline on Sunday, April 25th. Those interested can go here to apply.

Good luck!
