3/ The cohorts are deliberately small, ~15 founders, for maximum performance

We tailor nuances of the program each time for the needs of each founder irrespective of the sector you are building in; materials, bio or hardware.

2/ Through BSF you secure the most optimal spinout terms from your tech transfer office, and even your professor.

A chunk of BSF companies are spinouts because many of you come from academia. Wilbe Founders have conceded on average 2.5% equity to their universities.
