Founder Workshop: "Budget Modeling for Startups"
Each quarter, Venture Mechanics offers a rotating series of Founder Workshops on specific topics that every startup team needs to master. These are typically 3-4 hour evening sessions given by the best of our mentors. While the workshops are intended to be taken sequentially they can be taken out of order.
Companies in the Venture Mechanics incubator are entitled to an unlimited free buffet of these workshops during their term. The workshops are also open to startups that aren't in the incubator, at the regular tuition price. Dinner is included, and parking is always free.
