DESCRIPTION:Why Do 92% of Early-Stage Startups Fail — And How Do You Avoid Being One of Them? \nSeven years ago\, this statistic stopped us in our tracks. Today\, it still hasn’t changed — and that’s exactly why we’re hosting this event. \nFounders today aren’t short on information. They’re buried in it. Conflicting advice\, emerging trends\, and constant noise make it harder than ever to stay focused on what actually drives growth. After analyzing hundreds of startup post mortems\, one thing stands out: most of these failures were preventable. \n❯ What We’ll Cover: \n\nIs an accelerator the right fit for your startup?\nDo you need to pursue the VC route — and what are the alternatives?\nHow our program is structured and what sets it apart\nHow AI is reshaping the startup landscape and what it means for founders\n\nWhether you’re just starting out or looking to level up\, this is your chance to get real answers\, cut through the noise\, and walk away with clarity on your next steps. \n❯❯ Bring your questions. We’ll be ready. \nWe look forward to meeting you! — Jeni & Lucas \nHosted by Founder Institute \nInterested in the SF/OAK program?\nOur upcoming Spring cohort starts soon!
