Entrepreneur First

Entrepreneur First (EF) aims to bring together and fund exceptional individuals to help them meet their co-founders, develop an idea and raise money from leading investors - as fast as possible. Although it is NOT an accelerator, EF does offer a 3-month long program to help startups hit the ground running. The companies built at EF are now worth over $10B, and include names such as Tractable, Cleo, Omnipresent, Aztec, Transcelestial, Airbank and many more. Entrepreneur First is backed by some of the world's best tech founders and company builders, such as Patrick and John Collison (Stripe); Reid Hoffman (LinkedIn), Tom Blomfield (GoCardless and Monzo), Sara Clemens (Pandora and Twitch); Nat Friedman (GitHub); and Matt Mullenweg (Wordpress). It has programs in Berlin, London, Paris, Bangalore, Singapore, and Toronto.
