A new focused direction to help you in the road ahead
At Prepare 4 VC we have some major updates in store for our network of entrepreneurs. As an organization devoted to enabling and empowering startup entrepreneurs, it is important for us to practice what we preach and continuously optimize, pivot and adapt to what our audience truly needs.
In this Prepare 4 VC bulletin we are excited to announce several changes and expansions below.
Please reach out with any questions and to learn more about how we can support your venture in the road ahead,
Jason Kraus
CEO of Prepare 4 VC
Prepare 4 Launch is now the Prepare 4 VC Catalyst Program
Our Accelerator is now the Prepare 4 VC Breakthrough Program
This is our structured 12 week program, formally known as the Prepare 4 VC Accelerator, where you can break through current roadblocks and challenges associated with creating a fully scalable and investable venture. The name change aligns with the mission of the program: "It isn't about how fast the changes happen, it's about whether the combination of credible education and genuine support can cause breakthroughs. These breakthroughs further condition, embolden, and indeed prepare startups for what can come after: the evolution which brings growth"
We are excited to announce our esteemed mentor Ron Zakay has officially joined the Prepare 4 VC as an Entrepreneur in Residence for the upcoming Prepare 4 VC Breakthrough program. We are currently accepting applications for the January cohort which will run from January 8th through the end of March. It is a hybrid program with virtual sessions and in person demo day pitch event in Boston at the end of the program. Please apply by December 1, 2023 and we will be conducting interviews on a rolling basis:
