today is the last today to apply to Blueprint II
we're looking to invest $150k upfront in ambitious founders working on the world's hardest problems
we've received some wild applications:
teams working in biotech, hardware, aerospace, foundational models, energy, manufacturing,
& you might relate to their stories
former engineers of massive companies who've been sitting on an idea for too long
repeat founders who've climbed the hill before & want to go even deeper
builders who've been obsessed with technology since they were kids, & they can't stop building bigger and bigger "toys"
we've created a home for these types
dedicated hardware space for your team, community of technical passionate founders, chef prepared food to fuel you, office hours/talks with exited founders we look up to, and of course funding to move faster
100% of our frontier tech companies have received follow on investment, there has never been a more active time to work on deep tech than right now
if you have an idea, a prototype, a v1
we think you should apply
it will change your life
San Francisco has endless desks. and almost nowhere to build something that doesn’t fit on one.
So we gave our hardware companies a garage in the middle of the city.
This founder’s farm sits between a welding robot and a Waymo bike.
Building something big? Come build it here.
I want to write more $100k - $250k checks to founders that are heads down building.
So we're opening applications. but there's a catch: you can't send us a pitch deck, resume, or even what school you went to.
Instead, we just need you to show up for 5hrs and build what you're building in front of us.
So this Friday, we're hosting Night Hack for the third time.
We're selecting the top 80 teams to see what they can ship before we leave.
We'll have prizes/insane credits, food, access to our space, and of course the possibility of coming back and calling our campus your home.
If you want to ship something crazy + attend:
However be warned, you may be outshipped...
