Student Founders

A 12-week path from curious student to real founder.

A structured program for students ready to turn initiative into a company-shaped project, with mentorship, modern AI tooling, and a clear weekly cadence.

What students build

Each student chooses a problem, validates an audience, assembles a working prototype or service, and learns how to explain the venture clearly.

  • A venture thesis and audience map
  • A working prototype, service offer, or launch-ready experiment
  • A public-facing case study suitable for applications and interviews

How support works

The program creates adult-grade structure without taking over the student’s work. Mentors guide decisions, review progress, and keep the standard high.

  • Weekly milestones and review rituals
  • Responsible AI workflows and founder judgment
  • Community context with other builders
Founder Track

For students who can commit about five hours a week.

A group-mentored track for students who need structure, accountability, and a serious peer context while building their first venture-shaped project.

Venture Track

For students ready for a deeper build, and ten hours a week.

An application-only track for students who can commit about ten hours a week and benefit from 1:1 mentor attention around a more ambitious venture.
