Does This Describe You?
1. You are in corporate but want to explore the entrepreneurship route and don't know where to start
2. You are an entrepreneur looking to productize your business but you don't have a technical co-founder.
3. You are a founder considering applying to 500 Startup, YC, Antler or TechStars and you need an MVP for the application.
4. You have graduated from an accelerator but still want to validate your Product Market Fit (PMF).
In the coming months, we're launching a new approach to building your MVP product.
Funded or not funded, if you don't have a technical co-founder, become a Prove Global Resident and get product market fit.
Join a cohort of founders from Silicon Valley, Singapore, NYC, Dubai and beyond!
Develop Your MVP Product In A Boundless Manner
Spend one month in Rwanda, Bali, Portugal or Kenya, and co-locate with a product-oriented tech team made up of a solution engineer, product designer and product owner. Avoid unnecessary overhead costs of building an in-house tech team and easily scale up or down.
Reduce Technical Constraints
Don't get hold up if you can't find the right developers to get your MVP right. Define a weekly roadmap and have twice weekly reviews with a tech lead who will advice your assigned tech team on tech stacks and solutioning approaches
Why Prove Global Residency Is A Must Do
Remove the complexities of sourcing, vetting and onboarding talent to help bring your product to market faster. Whether you are building your first MVP, improving your current product, adding a new feature or scaling up the platform, your assigned team will be ready to jump in and get things done ASAP. To top it off, you will also have access to the tech team beyond the residency

About Us
Over the past two years, we have seen hundreds of founders who are passionate about their idea, apply to the popular accelerators for funding and the network.
There are similarly thousands more founders who choose to bootstrap and grow organically.
We want to launch this new program, which can be a pre-accelerator or a post-accelerator for you, depending on the phase of your startup.
We have spent the last two years curating a product-oriented community of vetted talent. We see this new endeavor as a win-win for both the founders and the undiscovered talent.
