Want to be mentored by me? Get on the Cohort 19 waitlist

cohort 18 · closedcohort 19 · applies spring 2027

Growth Lab is StartOut's accelerator for LGBTQ+ founders building venture-scale companies. I mentor in the program and source founders into each cohort. Applications for Cohort 18 closed in June — leave your email and I'll tell you the day Cohort 19 opens.

Who it's for: LGBTQ+ founders with early traction — revenue, users, or signed pilots.
What you get: $1M+ in credits, mentorship, community, and investor intros across the cohort.
Waitlist only — one email when applications open, nothing else. Applying early through me means I see your company before the cohort fills.
