About NextGen

Are you smart, driven, and eager to build something amazing? If so, we’re looking for YOU!

We’re here to empower you with the skills and tools needed to turn your ideas into thriving realities. We don’t just believe in your potential – we’ll equip you with the foundations to become a great entrepreneur. From concept to execution, we'll teach you how to bring your boldest ideas to life. If you want to be a future founder, come join us!

We'll provide you with an 8-week world-class entrepreneurship crash course, access to renowned experts from top tech companies and universities, and opportunities to network with successful founders, operators, top investors, and like-minded peers. You'll also have a chance to pitch to actual investors for funding by the end of the program. Throughout the program, you'll collaborate with fellow cohort members, sharing knowledge and expertise to drive collective growth and innovation.

Logistics

This program is designed to accommodate students who have summer internships. We know that you want to operate and learn best-in-class practices, so all programming will be conducted after standard office hours.

Additionally, we are open to all students (high school to PhD) as we are firm believers that strong founders can come out of anywhere and at any age.

This program will be 8 weeks and will start on June 1 through July 31, 2026. Sessions will be held in-person at the Notable Capital SF office once a week for 60 minutes. There will also be optional in-person networking events. Small group mentorship sessions will be held virtually throughout the fellowship.

The final session, Pitch Day, will be held in the afternoon of the final week of the program. Attendance is mandatory.
