Who should apply?

This is for you if you:

  • have an early-stage idea (or even just a strong “why doesn’t this exist?”)

  • want to learn fast, try things out, and build with others

  • are ready to show up and make progress each week

No business background needed. No perfect idea required.
Just curiosity and commitment.
