Frequently asked questions
This program is for Startups. Depending on the stage your Startup is, you can start on the relevant Phase of the Program.
We’re able to accommodate a limited number of Startups, so please apply when you are ready but not later.
The Mentoring that comes with the Program is free in order to support the Startups the best way possible. Any resources needed for Design, Development, Architecture or Project Management will be billed accordingly.
Through our Program we help you Navigate, avoid common mistakes and develop the components your Startup needs in the most efficient way is available today.
No, we accelerate technical execution and we help you navigate at the same time, but we don’t provide assistance on Management, Legal and other areas Accelerators do. We are Partnered with Accelerators and we’ll be happy to make the introductions.
We select Startups based on criteria that allows us to understand which Startup will gain the most from our Program.
While Incubators help entrepreneurs refine business ideas and build their companies and Accelerators provide early-stage companies that have an MVP with the education, resources and mentorship, 7L Startup Program fills the gap of technology execution, experience, support and guidance many tech startups have in all their Phases, from the idea to expansion.
