Build your startup in Mexico with the companies and people who can move it forward
Free, equity-free programs for founders and developers in Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey: hackathons, mentorship from operators, startup perks and rooms with the companies and investors building here.
Where do you start?
If you are getting started
Join a hackathon or an event. Build something real in a weekend, meet the people working in the field and compete for prizes. It costs nothing and what you build is yours.
See the programs on the calendarIf you already have a project
We connect founders in our programs with tools, credits and support from the companies we work with, and introduce strong teams to accelerators and to our own programs. We look for real progress, not just an idea.
Tell us what you are buildingIf you have experience to share
Judge a hackathon, mentor a team, speak at an event or help decide what we run next. A role beyond attending.
Tell us about youIf you have already exited
Your next company, from a position of advantage. For founders with an exit, fractional executives and operators starting their second, third or fourth company: a small group and sessions with operators who have done it. There is no open call.
