Today, the world is plagued with a myriad of problems: conflict, inequality, poverty...

And every year, founders roll out solutions with one goal: to solve these problems.

But good intentions rarely build great solutions. You still need knowledge, tools, and feedback to turn it into something that the market wants. Our founders' program provides all this expert support.

Using our GOOD Framework™, we teach you how to turn a good idea into a solution people genuinely need, while giving you a community to test and refine it along the way.

Whether you’re making education radically better or making clean energy affordable for a farmer in rural Africa, there’s a seat for you in the room.

Some of Our Teaching Modules

Systems Thinking. We teach you how to identify where your intervention can create leverage and where it could unintentionally make things worse. We move you from designing isolated solutions to designing for systems change.

Root-Cause Analysis. We teach you how to stop building solutions around symptoms and start addressing the forces creating the problem. This will completely change what you choose to build, who you build for, and where you intervene.

Problem Framing. We teach you how to challenge the assumptions hiding inside your original problem statement. A better frame opens up better possibilities. Instead of solving the first problem you see, you learn to identify the problem worth solving.
