Selfstarters Academy

Why we exist to enable more tech success stories, globally.

Successful tech companies are created with the right mix of skills, knowledge and community. The balance of these three factors allows entrepreneurs to build sustainable businesses that are attractive to investors and balance growth with profit.

The issue is that most technology incubators and traditional accelerators follow an outdated approach that puts investment as a number one priority. This often comes at the cost of mismatching investor capabilities and founders accepting less ideal terms out of desperate needs.

We change that.

Our main priority is to support founders in increasing revenue by attracting high-value customers and establishing a strong market position without relying on external funding. This keeps founders happy, investors keen and builds the foundation to sustainability.

What we do.

Selfstarters Academy is an online community for global tech entrepreneurs. We offer a number of digital programs to support the entrepreneur's journey and increase success. Our experts and advisors are experienced founders and have worked in the tech accelerator space.
