Go Further, Go Faster, Enjoy the Journey

Our Superpowers program is designed to help you scale your venture and become a resilient leader. In the first six months, you'll engage in venture-building creation challenges and personal performance experiences. The second half focuses on fundraising, where we co-pilot your seed round or additional financing with our network of early-stage investors.

Venture Acceleration

Our team of accomplished founders has distilled their experiences from building multi-billion-dollar companies into transformative business creation challenges. Each month, your team will tackle a new challenge designed to drive tangible results and accelerate growth. These challenges focus on six key dimensions of business success: idea, team, customer, product, operations, and fundraising.

High-Performance Leadership

We treat founders and their ventures like world-class, high-performance athletes. To realize your impact and scale a global technology business, you need to be equipped with a resilient mindset, develop your leadership, ability to manage state, and build a support network of coaches. We will help you and your venture to perform with excellence.

World-Class Mentoring

Yope mentors are alumni of our program and successful founders from our community. They’ve walked in your shoes and provide personal guidance, industry insights, and strategic support to help you navigate growth and scale. Their experience becomes your advantage as you build and evolve your venture.

Fundraising Co-Pilot

After the first six months of building your vision and company foundation, we focus the next six months on fundraising. From preparing for investor meetings to making key introductions, our goal is to help you secure seed or additional funding. We also offer further investment to select teams.
“It’s much more than just 12 months at Yope, it’s a relationship. It continues on after that one year as you continue to learn, grow and get mentored by the people who supported you from the very beginning. They were our first believers, and deeply understand the whole life cycle of the company, all the challenges and triumphs.”
Connor Landgraf
CEO & Founder of Eko Health
"In a world full of people claiming to help startups, Yope is the real deal. The team truly delivers. They've been through the trials of building ventures themselves and have helped me apply those lessons directly to my journey as a founder. Whenever I face a problem, challenge, or opportunity, they’re always my first call for guidance and support."

Frequently Asked Questions

Eligibility

We work with university student (undergraduate, masters, and PhDs) and recent alumni (last 24 months) teams. We accept applications from any accredited university in the world.

Team Size and Stage

We work with teams of two or more founders. Our program  is for companies that have an idea and can think big about their product to build a scalable company. You don't need to have it all figured out though, that's what we're here to do together.

Technology, Product, and Market

We don't look for a particular kind of technology, product, or market but instead look for a team's ability to formulate their company as a vehicle for delivering a better future to people and the planet. Typically, these are emerging or breakthrough technologies that have a swift go to market time and are highly scalable.  

Program Time Commitment and Structure

The time commitment varies per week and on the phase of the program. The first six months are spent amplifying the core of your company. You'll normally have a weekly activity that fits into focus of the month.

These activities optimize your existing efforts. We aim to save you time, instead of adding superfluous busy-work for you.

In the second-half of the program, we focus on fundraising, by introducing you to investors and preparing you for pitches.

Funding and Investment Terms

Our $100K funding when you join the program is a SAFE (Simple Agreement for Future Equity) convertible note that is founder-friendly with no cap and no discount.

We don't take upfront equity. If the note converts into equity, the equity is owned by and all proceeds are returned to our non-profit, a USA 501c3 Yope Foundation Inc. registered in the state of Delaware.

Yope also provides additional investments of $1M to $5M to selective alumni companies. These investments are owned by the non-profit and any proceeds go to support more next-generation innovators and consious innovation activities.
