Review on Entrepreneur First by Douglas Cachazo

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Entrepreneur First: Accompanies ventures from the seed stage or simple idea.

Since its foundation, this accelerator is characterized by taking seed companies and just the idea. If you decide to sell your idea, there is the option that you can get good money for its sale to an associated group which is ready to buy good innovative initiatives.

I would call that idea entrepreneurs and idea buyers.

The numbers speak volumes for Entrepreneur First since its founding in 2011 has founded more than 300 successful companies which are valued at nearly $2.5 billion and has recruited more than two thousand people. High numbers for a heavyweight accelerator.

EF is ready for startups thanks to their associate co-founders and their partnership with other prestigious accelerators such as Y Combinator,
They have a two-month accelerator program, to which you apply if you pass two interviews and a formal presentation of your idea, you will be given support from its network of founders or specialized mentors, also to the network of associated entrepreneurs, the company gives you a non refundable credit, money to start your idea, after the start if you need more funding the company can give you, in exchange for a percentage of your nascent company,

Another particularity of EF is that it has a group of CEO's that can take charge of your company and lead it to success. This is important.

The program is face to face and has locations in London, Paris, Berlin, Singapore, Hong Kong and Toronto, in all locations you will have the co-founders, cash for your personal maintenance, free office space for your development.

Something important, if for any reason if your venture does not crystallize but EF sees potential in you, you are invited to join the network of cofounders prior to this you will receive the necessary education.
