I happen to have been accepted to Lean Gap and Quarter Zero this summer. However, some have brought up that Lean Gap may be a scam??? I wanted to see how Q0, Lean Gap, LaunchX, and Endevvr stack up against each other in terms of launching a successful startup. Any thoughts??
■■■■■■■ isn’t a scam, but it’s not as developed as the other programs you could say. LaunchX is definitely known for its entrepreneurial programs and is a great way to launch your startup. The best ones I’d say are LaunchX and Q0(I believe they were called Catapult before)? I’ve worked with LaunchX through their clubs program, and I love the program. Q0 is also another great program. I’m not sure if their layout has changed, but I believe you work on your startup in 3 different cities with your team over the course of the program. My friend launched her startup with Q0, and she’s been really successful with it. She was able to receive funding at Southwest’s SXSW and has been able to gain a lot of connections through Q0. ■■■■■■■ is a bit sketchy as I applied to them last year and was admitted despite never even having an interview and typing up my application before it was due, but I think this is only because the program isn’t as established. The founder, Eddy Zhong, is really inspirational though, and I think the program has a lot of potential in growth. I haven’t heard as much about Endevvr though. Good luck!
