Entrepreneurs @ Berkeley

Undergraduate founder community

Builders need other builders. We find them, put them in the same room, and wait for a spark.

Manifesto

Why Berkeley

Our job isn't to create entrepreneurs — it's to find them, put them in the same room, and wait for a spark.
Hustle, not pedigree

Nobody got here through a backdoor. With 45,000 students and no hand-holding, you learn to ship — the skillset entrepreneurship actually demands.

25 minutes from Sand Hill

Coffee with a founder in the morning, a VC pitch in the afternoon, class at night. Silicon Valley's 'just ship it' culture is already on campus.

No founder archetype

Engineers, poets, pre-meds, and people from 100+ countries. The best companies here come from collisions, not a single mold.
