We are trying something new with Inception Studio Cohort 9 - we are bringing in existing startup founding teams instead of individual founders. As such, these companies are further along and are using Demo Day to kick off their Pre-Seed fundraising. Seven amazing startups will be presenting this Sunday at Demo Day. Although this is the least experienced group we've ever had at Inception (average of 8.1 years work experience), 21% have PhDs from top schools, and altogether they have founded 20 companies and have raised $126M. Inception Studio events always fill up quickly and get waitlisted, but you can register here: https://lnkd.in/gFh7jbBw

John Whaley Great program! Curious if you also fund the companies in your cohort or just provide the mentorship?
