Overview

Through a highly structured process, constant feedback from local and international mentors, and a lifetime of support, FI Alumni have raised over $1 billion in funding and are building some of the world's fastest growing companies

Founders accepted to the core program are asked to pay a $899 USD course fee to cover the costs of running the program, which are fully refundable before the start of the third program session. In addition, each Founder Institute Alum contributes 4% of their company equity in Warrants to a fifteen-year Equity Collective, and when a liquidity event occurs the Pool’s financial returns are then distributed equally across the cohort.
