Validate Your Idea

Your first idea is never your best idea.  Learn how to create multiple variations of your concept and choose the idea that's most likely to succeed

Test Your Idea

There's nothing worse than spending a ton of money on a product, just to find out that no one wants it.  This is the reason most startups fail. Learn to test before launching

Showcase Your Idea

After you've found the perfect idea, it's time to develop the skills to tell your story to customers, investors, sponsors and partners.

The Venture Labs Run Down:

This is an 4 week online program with virtual workshops, a private community platform, office hours, demo day and more!

Why You Should Choose Venture Labs

Watch the video below to know why its important for you to participate in an online accelerator program that's specifically created for founders with disabilities

If you're a founder with a disability and you have a business idea in your head or on paper - then Venture Labs is absolutely a great fit for you.  This program is also valuable to people who have passed the idea stage but have yet to make significant amounts of money.  We are looking for founders with high growth, tech or tech enabled ideas.

Disabled people are historically underserved by resources and programs targeting entrepreneurs. We want to challenge the entrepreneurial ecosystem by supporting founders with disabilities, and giving them the education, funding opportunities, community and mentorship to thrive.

KNOWLEDGE

You'll graduate from Venture Labs knowing information that only 1% of the world knows.  You can take this knowledge with you when starting any business or project in the future and have more potential to succeed than many other entrepreneurs.

CUSTOMERS

Those who complete all assignments, attend all workshops and engage in all discussions should leave the program with at least 1 customer. After your first customer, we can show you how scale to 50!

The 4 Phases of Venture Labs

Venture Labs is broken into [what we like to call] the 4 T's:

Phase 1: Think

Brainstorm and think about the best ideas that not only solve a real problem but are currently worth pursuing

You will create assumptions and test them with customers.  Your idea will be reviewed and changed several times until it's exactly the way customers want it.

Phase 3: Test

Let customers build your product for you.  In this phase  you talk to several people in your market in order to validate your idea in less than a week

Phase 2: Talk

Once your idea is fully validated, it's time to tell the world. Learn the art of storytelling and showcase your progress in our pre-recorded Demo Day that will be share with our partners, investors, mentors and community.
