Get Your Founder Lab Application Ready
In case you missed it…
Applications are open for the next cohort of our Founder Lab!
The Founder Lab is an intensive, 10-week program that helps talented and motivated founders to learn how to fundraise with confidence.
From mock investment scenarios to calculating your pro-forma cap tables and everything in between, we’re here to demystify the entire fundraising journey. With a team of expert champions, we'll go through everything you need to build your financing strategy from pre-seed to series A.
By the end of the Founder Lab, you’ll walk away with:
💰 A comprehensive financing strategy for your startup
🎤 A compelling pitch deck designed to raise capital
📈 An understanding of the essential unit economics of your business
👩💻 Strategies for managing human capital
📘 A tailored playbook for your business
Wondering if this program is the right fit for you? Great question!
The Founder Lab is for women and gender-diverse individuals leading or co-founding companies headquartered in Canada—ideally those planning to raise a pre-seed ($25K - $1M CAD) round within 6 to 8 months of applying.
The Founder Lab is completely free to founders—no cost or equity involved! Our goal is to support more women and gender-diverse people who are early in their founder journey.
As mentioned, applications are already open, but if you want to take your time preparing your responses, we’ve got you covered.
Here’s an editable version of all the application questions you can download, take your time filling out, and later input into the application webform when you’re ready.
Applications close March 22, 2024. We’re so excited to get to know you and your company!
Don’t forget to register for an upcoming information session to learn more about the Lab and get answers to any questions you might have. Save the date and sign up for a session here.
