​Home for Builders residency, season 01

​96 hours. 21 builders. mumbai

​home for builders is an execution first residency for developers, designers, founders, creators, hackers, and ambitious internet people who want to build something real.

​this is not a hackathon. not a networking event.

​this is a 4 day immersive builder residency designed around execution.

​for 96 hours, selected builders will work together in mumbai to:

• ​build products

• ​ship fast

• ​validate ideas

• ​learn distribution

• ​collaborate with other builders

• ​document the journey

• ​and push themselves harder than they normally would alone

​you can walk in with:

• ​an idea

• ​a side project

• ​a startup

• ​or even just the obsession to build

​what happens during the residency?

​through out the 4 days, builders will:

• ​form teams or build solo

• ​work on products/startups

• ​attend short execution focused founder sessions

• ​learn startup thinking & distribution

• ​document the process publicly

• ​and pitch your work at the demo day

​

​this residency is designed to feel:

• ​intense

• ​collaborative

• ​internet native

• ​founder driven

• ​raw and real

​we care more about people who execute, than people who simply talk about ideas.
