The Blueprint
WFC invites founders and mentors to our network to nominate deserving startups to EvolveX. Applicants submit applications through a form on the accelerator website.We accept appli on a rolling basis
We filter applications to find startups that meet our criteria. The screening process requires founders to pitch to the WFC internal panel.
Based on further scrutiny and internal discussion, startups are selected to join the cohort.
The EvolveX program begins. We train founders with the basic aspects of running a business through info sessions by investors, entrepreneurs and partners. Founders share business updates with the EvolveX team and fellow cohort members. We bring exposure to our founders through external networking events. The program ends with rigorous pitch practice where founders are trained individually and in groups by the accelerator team, mentors and the We Founder Circle investment team.
The cohort pitches to investors in the We Founder Circle network to a much wider network at Demo Day.
