A new way to build and scale your startup.

Foundership supports new startups to accelerate growth through coaching, raising capital and the founders' network.

Coaching:We coach the seed/pre-seed stage to build initial growth with our Seed acceleration program.We run cohort programs for early-stage founders to solve business challenges.We host office hours to help founders to share their challenges and specific advice they need.
‍Capital:We bring Founders & Leaders to get startup funding signals via the Foundership Signal - A system for Funding.We invite our funding partners to participate in Seed Acceleration Program to work with startups and choose to invest.
‍Connect:We connect startups with incredible Founders & Leaders to get help and also expand their network.We help startups to grow via partnership and market access programs.

‍Strategy is great, but 90% of Startups fail with execution as one of the key factors. Thus, execution is the real engine for Startup Growth.The first 12-24 months of a startup are the most crucial part of the journey. Getting support at this stage in strategy, execution, talent, network, market access and funding/revenue will bring the right momentum for the startup to enable growth and successive funding rounds. At this stage executing on the right priorities matters and that's possible only when you have with clarity, direction, and focus.

We help founders make the key decisions about their startup, by helping founders understand the implications of each decision to their long-term missions. To help founders increase their odds of success by working with them in executing their weekly challenges.

Why Foundership?

No Limit

Every startup business needs a unique set of expertise. We have seen accelerators with only a limited number of partners try to contribute to everything. This is a sub-optimal solution.

No More Lonely Journeys

With Foundership Accelerator and Community, Entrepreneurship is never going to be a lonely journey. We will stand for you, work with you and solve your needs.

Open Founder Network

We believe the number of incredible founders has excellent unique insights and expertise to help budding startups in their core growth challenges. We are bringing this to help startup founders find the right mentors to work with you!

Execution Focus

We believe accelerator is not just about strategy but executing with a startup founder/team.

Ramp up Execution

We believe that more startups need the right push at the right time exponentially. Hiring the right team members at a very early stage is the biggest challenge for every startup founder. How about engaging founders to propel your growth with the right experiment while you are building your team?
