KinTech™ Founder Series: Build With Me
Build Your MVP in 6 Months
From Idea to Launch: Self-Directed Learning with Live Sessions, Scripts & Community Support. Removing barriers to tech entrepreneurship for learn-it-all professionals.
Why KinTech™ Founder Series: Build With Me?
A comprehensive, hands-on program designed for aspiring founders who are ready to stop planning and start building.
Build Your MVP
Go from idea to working prototype in 6 months with hands-on sessions and expert guidance.
Validate Your Idea
Learn customer development, market validation, and how to test your assumptions before investing years.
Community Learning
Join a supportive community of founders with 1-2 live sessions monthly and peer support between sessions.
Self-Directed Learning
Production-ready scripts, templates, and a GitHub project with step-by-step issues guide you between live sessions.
Technical Skills
Learn modern development tools, cloud deployment, and how to build scalable applications without a technical co-founder.
Business Fundamentals
Master business entity setup, legal foundations, and the operational essentials of launching a startup.
What Makes Us Different
🏗️ Build-First Approach +
No lectures or pre-recorded videos. Between monthly live sessions, you'll make real progress through self-directed work. You'll write code, design interfaces, talk to customers, and ship features. By the end, you'll have a launched product—not just a slide deck.
👥 Community Learning Model +
Join a small cohort (15-20 founders) with 1-2 live sessions monthly. Between sessions, access production-ready scripts, templates, and a private community for peer support. This creates accountability without requiring constant instructor availability.
⚖️ Technical & Business Balance +
Most programs focus on either technical skills or business strategy. We teach both. Learn modern development, cloud deployment, customer validation, pricing, and go-to-market execution.
✅ Validation Before Building +
We spend the first month validating your idea with real customers before you write code. Build what people actually want, not what you assume they need.
📝 Scripts, Templates & Automation +
Production-ready scripts for VS Code setup, GitHub workflows, and deployment automation. Plus example repositories with structured issues that guide you step-by-step.

Building pathways to entrepreneurship and tech careers for career transitioners and underrepresented founders.
