Why?

Right now, the world’s most ambitious people are held back by corporate and cultural convention. They are encouraged to join prestigious corporates, or top academic institutions and make slow and steady progress. This puts an artificial limit on what they can achieve, and how fast. We exist to remove that limit. We offer these Outlier individuals the opportunity to start a technology company and use their ambition to have a lasting, powerful

impact.

How it

works

Twice a year we select up to 100 people to join our programme, from thousands of applicants. The first part of the programme focuses on finding the right co-founder, and developing your idea. We call this _FORM._ The second is called _LAUNCH_ and helps you grow your company – with investment from us – culminating in a demo day in front of the world’s best investors.
