The School
From leaving your name to the Number.
The plan for how a cohort will run, in order.
- 01
Leave your name.
There is no application form, because there is no cohort. Leave your name and you will be told when there is.
- 02
The founder dinner.
When a cohort is forming, shortlisted teams are invited to dinner. That is the selection. Not a pitch, a conversation.
- 03
The cohort.
A small number of teams take their desks in the Room together. Backing lands. Work starts.
- 04
The working rhythm.
Build. Weekly time with mentors. Every Fellow records an episode.
- 05
The finishing fortnight.
The last two weeks are spent on the things that end companies: the selling, the hiring, the closing. No demo day.
- 06
The Number.
Every year, the companies from the Room are counted and the result is published, whatever it says.
Two, then three.
Two intakes a year at the start, so the Room stays small enough to know everyone's name. Three a year once the Room has earned it.
