Igniting Startups in 12 Weeks – From Idea to Prototype, Fueled by Hyper-Learning

About this Program

Startup Studio:
Unstuck Startups is a hyper-learning community and startup studio that takes you from idea to Launch in 12 weeks.

Potential Startup Studio members are screened and selected based on fit, founders, and idea potential with less than 2% selected to enter. Once accepted companies pay a one time commitment fee of $9,470 to join the studio. The commitment fee allows us to partner with you without taking equity upfront. In return you get over $50k in tangible services, co-working space, plus an opportunity to receive follow on funding. To date we have invested over $2mln in startups with an average ticket size of $25k-$150k, in addition to participating later rounds.

After successfully completing the Studio program based on progress, and fit members may be invited to join the Studio as Partners. Partners share an equity stake with Unstuck Labs, and we take the role of advisors, and cofounders to help you grow.
