FAQs
Is the program in-person or online?
The program operates in-person at the Lincoln Center Foundry for most sessions, with the choice of being online. Sometimes we have our guest founders, coaches, and investors come in person, and it’s a great opportunity to personally introduce yourself to potential business partners.
Does my start-up have to be developed?
No, a lot of the time we have founders come in with only an idea, then end up changing it towards the end. There is no prerequisite for how developed your business or idea must be; the program is made to support founders at any stage of the start-up journey and hold everyone accountable to their progress points.
