I ask entrepreneurs and enterprise innovators, "What problem are you solving" and then I help them design and run experiments to prove the problem, test the solution, or grow. Lean Startup is my favorite tool, but I have many to help them minimize waste, reduce risk, go faster, and ultimately succeed faster. Sometimes I bribe founders to do their first 5 REAL ethnographic discovery interviews. I work or have worked with Google, the Department of Health and Human Services, The Build Institute in Detroit, Bunker Labs, 150 Startups (Alberta), KauffmanLabs, TechPeaks, Bizdom, Numa Paris, StartupIstanbul, Startup Chile, TurkishWIN, FastForward Ramallah, AOL, ESPN, NewsCorp, AMEX and others who don't want their competition to know just how valuable it can be to run the types of experiments I teach.
$600 for your 1st startup experiment, $2600 for each additional experiment

We know the funding landscape is tough out there. Here's the deal. Apply for your first grant now, it takes 10 minutes. If you do not qualify, we will tell you exactly why and how to fix it, and we will buy you a cup of coffee just for applying:) Apply manually by filling out a workbook. There is no expectation of privacy. This is "building in public". It is a messy workbook on purpose. Do you want to see who else is getting resources and why? Are you tired of spending 40 minutes filling out an application that goes into a black hole? Apply by chatting with our agent. You must be logged in to superme to use this feature. You will get an INSTANT decision! You must instruct the agent that you are applying for the $600 or $2,600 grant depending on whether this is your first experiment or not. The application is as simple as we can make it, tell us what problem you are solving, for whom, and how you would spend up to $600/$2,600 on your first/next experiment. See here and here for founders who have received the grant, what they are doing with it, and how easy it was to apply. This offer is now open to everyone. Feel free to share with your cohort. We have given out cash, marketing packages, lovable credits, last mile coders, and even a freezer! If you have applied and are waiting for an answer reply directly to this email or DM me on LINKEDIN. We are reviewing every single application by hand, not just AI - but accidents happen. If you are not ready for a formal sprint or experiment, connect with us on happenstance or intro and we will make introductions on your behalf to one customer or one investor at a time.

Hi Reader, One thing I want to be transparent about: I have been using Claude Code -- Anthropic's AI -- to help organize this conference. It has been finding speakers, building the invite list, drafting outreach, and scheduling this email. I am telling you this because it is relevant to what we are doing in Rome. The November 5th event is built around one question: what happens to startup programs when AI can do the work that used to require a team? We are not debating whether this is...
