From our kickoff on last week, our 5 intrepid founders went all in- 📍Product Market Fit (PMF) Assessment with Emily Giddings that will be a foundational living document for their venture 📍Goal Setting and KPI with Mika Melchanka and James Fong which will be serve as a critical focus point over the next weeks 📍 Introduced to their Mentors, who are accomplished founders and will be with them for the duration of the Bootcamp 📍Office Hour session where the founders shared their overall and weekly goals with each other which allows them to grow, learn and ideate together. 📅 This week- we kick off with our development partner Verticode to start scoping and developing each Venture's MVP Forge Ahead ⚒️ Interested in learning more or becoming a Partner with VentureForge?

⚡️We Are Live⚡️ We believe that all founders, regardless of background or pedigree, should have the opportunity to forge their ideas into impact. To support this, we are launching out first cohort of The Forge Bootcamp starting October 7th At VentureForge, we believe in the economic, societal, and wealth creating power of entrepreneurship. It has driven forward the American Dream for over 200 years and, at its core, has demonstrated that great ideas can come from anywhere and anyone. 📷 We also believe in data. The data clearly shows us that not all founders have the access to the hyper critical variables such as early funding, expanded network and support needed to turn their ideas into business impact. Our mission is to follow the data and enable those Founders who have been underserved by traditional funding and support sources on their journey to success by surrounding them with: ✅ Equity-Free funding ✅ Tailored MVP Development ✅ Dedicated Advisors ✅ Executive Coaches and Founder Wellness ✅ Expanded Network ✅ Education and Resources ⚒️ The Forge is a place where we take the right raw materials and through work and craftsmanship transform it into a more valuable version of itself ⚒️ The public slots for our first cohort are limited and are determined on a rolling basis until close on September 30th. ⚡️ Forward this to Founders you think would benefit ⚡️ Visit our website at ventureforge.org to learn more and apply #Startupbootcamp #entrepreneurship #equityfreefunding #venturesupport #StartupSuccess #ImpactDriven #founder #startupfunding #mvpdevelopment #FoundersCommunity #StartupJourney #EntrepreneurSupport @marcuseast
