Given the short timeline, the one month will fly by! We expect you to attend one webinar every week and at least one 1:1 with the Paralect team. This allows not only us to get to know you as a founder but also for you to get to know us as a potential partner!

We ask all our founders to consistently preach about their progress through their own social media. This is the best way to get rapid feedback from your network and build a relationship with your future customers without even having a product yet!

Build an MVP and Fundraise
The application to the Batch #1 is closed.
The most challenging part for the first-time founders is not building an MVP but actually find users who are committed to use it. That’s what this program is aimed at.

It's easy to get caught up on the glamour of startups but early on, validating that there's a problem which more importantly needs solving should be a priority.

The only thing that matters for your startup is traction. Traction happens when you expose yourself to the people and get their attention.

Still have questions?
Ideally you will:
- Be at an idea stage
- have a good understanding of the market you wish to operate in (domain knowledge).
- have not raised any funding yet but we are open-minded!
- Demonstrate commitment to building a startup
- Evidence consideration of the problem area and solution
Following your application, our team will review the details and get back to you with a decision via email as soon as possible. If successful, we will invite you to a short introductory call to get to know you better and see if the bootcamp is right for you!
You will need to be available to join the weekly webinar on a Monday evening, at least one mentorship session a week and the willingness to work around your other commitments to build your idea. We estimate approximately 5-6 hours a week!
No you do not! Our awesome design team will build out a basic landing page for you to support your early traction.
Absolutely not! We do not require any financial input at this stage from business.
No, we are running the bootcamp free of charge and do not intend to take any equity unless an investment offer is made. There is no commitment to offer up any equity to partake in the bootcamp.
Unfortunately, we are unable to sign an NDA for various. Firstly, this would not allow us from entertaining or speaking to any founders in a similar industry which would be extremely difficult for us as a venture studio. More importantly, it is not in our interests to take a founder´s idea as most of the value is within the execution and work of the founder themselves!
You will pitch to Paralect´s Investment panel.
We will select at least one of the startups for a free MVP build and resource support as well as a fully funded Fundraising Strategy plan all worth over £10,000
Sounds exciting?
