FAQs
Our program is most valuable for people who are not just passionate about AI, but who can see what others can not – how to not just iterate with AI but how to disrupt.
We call these people ‘AI Natives’, and are particularly interested in speaking with individuals who think differently and are willing to go the distance to reimagine industries, and build the business of the future.
No you do not need a cofounder to apply. We very much welcome founder teams, but are also aware how AI enables solofounders like never before. The Hub brings together exceptional individuals to collaborate, which might include finding a cofounder and pivoting an idea to build a startup from scratch.
Our Hub is based in Leipzig and designed for individuals who want to dedicate significant time to building. We value our monthly events, but follow a strictly self-directed structure.
The Zukunftswerkstatt process is a free and voluntary offer to get you started, and we are happy to actively and creatively support our members at any point in their journeys. The only commitment we share is the commitment to move fast and to always be building at the frontier.
Following our commitment to speed, we review applications on a rolling basis. You will receive an email from us regardless of the outcome of your application. If we think you might be a good fit, we will invite you to meet in person.
At the moment, AI Natives does not directly provide financial stipends. However, we support founders in their effort and will update this section if public funding becomes available.
