Quarterly applications are peer-reviewed, the high-scoring applicants meet investors. Each founder receives quality feedback. No limit to the number of times a startup can apply
Diverse
Applications are blind with no mention of gender, age, ethnicity, or education. Increases the diversity of founders and startups. Educating our investors to look beyond pattern matching. Expanding into hardware, clean tech, and robotics to serve more founder
