How Do You Inspire Your Best Employees to Solve Real Business Challenges?
The Founder Institute intrapreneurship offering answers this — and how to foster technological innovation, and keep your most talented people engaged. Employees enroll in a 3.5-month training program, learning best practices for building a business with technology at the core, and are pushed to solve real problems faced by your company outside of business hours.
About 75% of employees develop ideas that can be integrated into the parent company as a business unit or process improvement, and 25% propose solutions with potential to become stand-alone partner companies — where you can even explore taking equity. Everyone leaves invigorated with innovative technology solutions that drive business results.
Innovation, retention, and team building
Employees become “intrapreneurs” and solve real challenges using technology — solutions that can be integrated as process improvements, new business units, or spinoffs.
Your top employees get invaluable life training while working on ideas they’re passionate about, returning to work as inspired and engaged innovators.
Assignments that force employees to think outside the box, building management skills and new competencies your business will benefit from.
Branding
Your organization will be listed as a sponsor, with prominent branding seen by aspiring entrepreneurs, established technology leaders, and the entire ecosystem of innovators.
From Idea to Product in 14 Weeks
The Founder Institute runs an intensive program that conditions people to think and act like successful technology company leaders. Once a week at night, three CEOs talk to enrolled Founders about a key area of startup expertise. Founders then go out and build their business following a roadmap of company-building assignments, working in peer groups to share expertise and insights. The combination of CEO mentorship, a structured approach, and experienced peer exchange leads to great results.
