The FI Agentic Program is 10 sessions plus Funding Day. Every founder in the cohort attends the same sessions; the work between them is set by your Playbook.
The sessions below are the sequence every cohort runs. Dates go up as soon as the next cohort is scheduled.
Готовы ли вы стать предпринимателем? Познакомились ли вы с другими участниками программы? Возможно, кто-то вам уже интересен как партнер? Кто возглавит вашу рабочую группу? Хотите ли вы стать президентом группы? Как получить наибольшую пользу из семинаров Founder Institute? Чего ожидать от запуска своего стартапа? Какие качества фаундера являются залогом того, что стартап будет успешен?
Every Founder follows the Agentic Track, an AI-personalized curriculum that adapts each sprint to be more advanced or more basic based on your stage, with AI agents to help complete the work.
The below deliverables are in addition to any custom "Epic Sprints" you may receive based on your specific challenges, and are just high-level previews of the 10-15 deliverables you'll complete through Working Groups and Office Hours:
