We've gotten a lot of great feedback from participants in our program, and here's a small sample; 

  • “I participated in this Summer’s program as a mentor and have spoken with a number of entrepreneurs who have graduated. All found it to be a great experience.” – Michael Arrington, Editor of TechCrunch
  • ”Having participated in several ‘incubators’ over the years, I can tell you that the Institute is a whole new take on the idea – one based on real entrepreneurs sharing real stories and advice in a very relaxed and supportive environment.” – Lauren, Summer 2009 Graduate
  • ”I was in the unique position of being in an executive MBA program and at the Founder Institute at the same time. While the MBA provides an awesome theoretical base, the Founder Institute was the best real-world experience on how to get a company off the ground. The quality of the mentors as well as my fellow classmates was beyond anything I had ever imagined.” – Nitin, Summer 2009 Graduate
