Sprint Events
Every hour counts. Work through structured ideation sprints, product design feedback loops, and direct founder reviews to take your project from paper to a functioning prototype.
Arbor is a 48-hour sprint designed to help ambitious builders, designers, and creators prototype their ideas and learn directly from successful founders who have built profitable businesses.
Unlike traditional events focused solely on technical coding benchmarks, Arbor is built around ideation, user experience, and practical business models, with direct 1-on-1 mentorship from self-made entrepreneurs.
