The 3-Day Intensive
Team Formation & Ideation
Founders with ideas pitch to the group. Solo founders find their ideal co-founders. We workshop initial ideas and begin prototype planning.
Intensive Building
Prototype development and technical work. 5+ rounds of pitch coaching from experienced mentors. One-on-one sessions with industry experts.
Demo Day
4-6 companies pitch 6 minutes each to a curated room of VCs, angels, and strategic investors. Real funding conversations begin.
What Makes Our Retreats Different
vs Traditional Accelerators
We give you the intensive experience without the long-term dilution or extended time commitment.
vs Hackathons
Our retreats create actual companies that go on to raise capital, not weekend projects that fade away.
vs Networking Events
You're not collecting business cards. You're building something real with people committed to the same goal.
