the residency - demo day
impressive work needs to be shared
the residency is the leading global founders residency network that is inspiring other companies in the category through it’s playbook, design, and founder experience.
our primary purpose is to enable the ambitious
built on a proven operating model and scaled to 14 homes across 3 continents, the residency has become a meaningful part of the AI and startup ecosystem. it gives ambitious builders worldwide direct access to silicon valley knowledge, capital, and momentum.
in just 2 years, companies formed within the residency have exceed $3 billion in aggregate value, establishing the brand as a globally recognized signal for high-agency founders
we are building a global ecosystem that empowers purpose driven humans
our positioning remains unyielding: higher education is flawed and stifles the imagination/creativity and success of the upcoming generation. as more and more students tend to look for alternatives to college, we hope to be the first line of support for the most ambitious
our thesis is designed to resonate with problem solvers, those who can't walk past a challenge without engaging. the hardest problems won't be solved by startups alone, but we live in a world where that’s how problems are being solved
this demo day is for investors hunting for their next unicorn :)
