Overview

The Family is a startup accelerator and educational platform that has taken a unique approach to supporting entrepreneurs across Europe. Founded in 2013, The Family is not just an accelerator but a long-term strategic partner for startups. It focuses on providing entrepreneurs with the tools, knowledge, and network they need to grow and succeed, regardless of their location.

What sets The Family apart is its emphasis on education and community-building. The organization offers a wealth of resources, including workshops, masterclasses, and extensive online content, to help startups at every stage of their journey. The Family's core belief is that entrepreneurship can be taught, and its goal is to democratize access to the knowledge and networks typically available only to a select few.

The Family also offers a unique equity model. Rather than providing a set amount of funding, The Family takes a 5% equity stake in the startups it supports in exchange for lifelong access to its resources, network, and community. This model reflects The Family's commitment to being a true partner in the long-term success of its startups, rather than just an early investor.

With a strong focus on Europe but with a global outlook, The Family has supported hundreds of startups, helping them raise funds, scale their operations, and navigate the complexities of building a successful business. For entrepreneurs looking for a comprehensive support system that extends far beyond traditional accelerator programs, The Family offers a unique and compelling proposition. More information can be found on The Family's website and their YouTube channel.
