FAQS

Does StartX take equity?

StartX does not take equity in the startups that go through our accelerator or
fellowship program.

Who can apply? Who is a Stanford-affiliated founder?

A Stanford-affiliated founder is someone who was/is a Stanford alumni,
undergraduate student, graduate student, faculty member, post doctoral scholar,
academic staff member, or fellow in a recognized Stanford fellowship program.
Additionally, the Stanford founder(s) must hold a significant equity stake in
the company. We make exceptions on a case by case basis if you are recommended
by multiple members of the StartX community.

What are the deadlines to apply and dates for the next batch?

Can I apply if I’m in school and just have an idea?

Yes! You can apply to the accelerator or Student in Residence program, and you
can apply multiple times!

I'm an experienced founder. What will StartX offer me?

Experienced founders often rely on StartX's ability to provide educational
training for their employees, access to industry & domain experts, and are given
a peer group of other experienced founders in the same stage/role/industry to
compare notes with.

We’ve had a ton of successful StartX repeat founders. Repeat founders often
appreciate the value of community, and the program is customized each time and a
different and more advanced program is provided for second / third time
founders.
