The short version
So what is YIP, exactly?
It is three things in one place, and you get all of them. Here is what is actually behind the login.
The classroom
Yes, there are courses.
21 courses and 113 modules you work through at your own pace, in order, with nothing locked behind a live call you missed.
- Video lessons with full transcripts
- Templates and worksheets to download
- Private notes saved against each module
The mentors
And people to ask.
7 operators who have built, scaled and funded companies, running live sessions rather than sitting in a directory you email into the void.
- A shared calendar of live sessions
- Direct access inside the community
- Recordings when you cannot make it
The community
And a room full of founders.
500+ Active Founders building right now, in channels organised by what you are stuck on rather than one feed that moves too fast to follow.
- Channels by topic, not one firehose
- Member profiles, so you know who you are asking
- Events you are actually in, not invited to
An accelerator
Gives you a programme, and takes a percentage of your company in return. You own less of it from the day you sign, forever.
YIP
Gives you the same programme, and takes none of it. No shares, no board seat, no cut of your exit. You finish owning exactly what you started with.

The YIP Difference

Founder Execution.
Our success is built on the relationships we foster. We don't just teach theory; we navigate the complexities of building, scaling, and funding a business so you don't have to guess your next move.
Speed & Execution
We turn 'startup time' into 'scale time'. Our actionable frameworks ensure you find product-market fit faster than going at it alone.
The 'Zero-Equity' Promise
Built by founders, for founders. We combine elite, VC-level mentorship without taking a single percentage of your company.
Global Network
From London to San Francisco, our vetted network of alumni and mentors ensures a consistent support system everywhere.
