In their words

What founders, mentors and investors say.

I applied with an idea on a page. A few months later I had a registered company and a product people were using.

Quick answers

Questions people ask first.

Read the full FAQ
Do I need a team to apply?

No. You apply as an individual. If you're selected, you'll get a dashboard to recruit your own team before the cohort begins.

What happens if my team isn't selected?

You keep everything you built. There is no legal or funding obligation until a team is chosen to move forward.

Who receives the award money?

The registered company, not an individual team member.

Applications are open for the next cohort.

It starts with a form. It can end with a funded company.
