Questions
Asked before, answered here.
What does membership cost?
Disclosed during admissions, not published here. We review you before you see a price.
Who actually qualifies?
4 doors, from $1M in revenue for a founder to $10M under management for an allocator. All 4 bars are published on the membership page.
Are students admitted?
Not for being a student. A founder who happens to be enrolled is judged on the company, on the same numbers as everyone else.
Can I pitch the room?
Twice a year, and no membership is needed to ask. What we want to see is published slide by slide.
How long does admission take?
3 to 6 weeks across 4 stages, each one a person reading what you wrote. The vote is unanimous.
Is anything recorded?
Never. Chatham House throughout: what is said travels, who said it does not.
Membership is by invitation. The first step is yours.
It starts with one confidential conversation.
