Fund a high schooler's first company.
batch0 is a live, online accelerator for U.S. high schoolers. Sponsorship pays for non-dilutive founder grants and keeps tuition at $130 instead of the $3,000+ other programs charge. Cohort 1 runs Aug 17 – Oct 18.
What sponsorship buys
Grants, not swag
Sponsorship funds the non-dilutive grant pool awarded to standout students at demo day. You can name the grant you fund.
Early talent
Cohort 1 seats up to 100 U.S. high schoolers, each building a real company. Meet them before recruiters do, as builders with work you can inspect.
A straight ledger
This is the founding cohort: no inflated alumni stats, no vanity metrics. You get exactly what each tier lists, and we report what your money funded.
