We expect to see around 11 companies graduating from a wide array of topics ranging from regaining your sense of smell, a great solution to keep your balcony green all the way to a solution for homeless people! This is the last chance to see the Fall 2024 cohort in its entirety and the first chance to see them as Founder Institute graduated companies!
But that is not all, we will feature serial founder and long standing Founder Institute supporter Christian Rebernik as our keynote speaker!
The Founder Institute startup accelerator is an extremely challenging program, and graduating is a significant achievement. In fact, less than 40% of applicants are accepted to the program, and less than 30% of those generally make it through. Being a Founder Institute Graduate Company is a seal of approval, signifying that company's founders, mission, model, and plans are being validated by experienced startup CEOs.
