There are no monetary costs for companies accepted into the program. Instead, we only take 3% equity in your company, which allows us to share the same risk and reward system you do.
We're very selective with acceptance into the program. We seek to work with compelling companies that have great teams and industry disruptive models. If you believe your company has what it takes to make the cut, then apply to the program and we’ll get in touch if there is a match.
Like what you see? Are you an early, mid, or late stage company that does not fit our program? In some cases, we take on a limited number of paid engagements. Should you not meet the criteria of our program and would like to work with us, please apply via our Client application and we'll be sure to get back to you.
