Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time commitment?
For the first 3 weeks, programming will take Monday through Thursday for 1.5 to 2 hours per day, typically between 7PM and 9PM EST. During the 4th week, it is more flexible as most of that week will be used to prep for your pitch deck and pitch.

It's free! Seriously, no strings attached! We just ask that you or a key member of your team fully attend the program.
