WHAT YOU GET

Built for the
long climb.

Three pillars of a Basecamp cohort, designed by founders, for founders. No fluff — just the gear, the people, and the rhythm to launch and grow.

// 01 — CURRICULUM

Expert-led
workshops

Five monthly virtual sessions led by working professionals — taxes, social media, AI, marketing, and a graduation showcase.

// 02 — COMMUNITY

Founders
in your corner

LIVE · COHORT.FEED

Private group, peer accountability, and a small business showcase at graduation — because no one summits alone.

// 03 — CADENCE

Built around
your schedule

AUG → DEC 2026
SAVE

One in-person kickoff, then five monthly virtual sessions. Designed for founders already running on a full plate.

// THE BASECAMP DIFFERENCE

Most business programs focus on the summit — the exit, the pitch, the perfect deck.

We focus on
the climb.

01
Equip.
The right tools, taught by people who use them.
02
Launch.
A cohort, a community, and a runway to go.
03
Grow.
Mentorship and showcase that compound after.
// THE PROTOCOL

Three steps. One ascent.
