What we are Looking for in Founders?

CRITERIA 1
Humble, accountable, and highly energized individuals
We are looking for founders who are highly motivated to transform their idea into reality.
We are looking for founders who can balance their talent and passion with accountability, humility, and a desire to grow.
CRITERIA 2
Founders who put their business first, until they can achieve success
Although Tech 387 is investing money in the form of services, and providing a clear path to find the optimal product market fit,the process for the founder is intense.
The founder will be expected to commit their time, energy and money in many different areas such as attending conferences, onboarding early users, soliciting feedback, funding operations, and much more.
CRITERIA 3
Founders who can formulate a clear commercialization strategy that can be proven with a single use case
Ideas that require multiple interconnected features and other complexities in order to be proven do not align with our system.
Conversely, a simple hypothesis that can solve a specific pain point is a great fit for our program.
