Founder Institute opens Fall 2011 applications in Singapore

The Founder Institute is opening its doors to more applicants once again. To qualify, applicants must be passionate about building a technology company, regardless of whether they have started their enterprise.

The program supports a wide range of technology industries: Digital media, software, biotech, cleantech, ecommerce, advertising, consumer electronics, and more.

The Founder Institute is an entrepreneurship training program “run for founders, by founders” (more stories on FI here). It was set up by Adeo Ressi (TheFunded.com) with the aim of mentoring entrepreneurs by people who have started and run successful startups themselves. Previously only available in the US, The Founder Institute has expanded its program internationally in collaboration with local partners.

Applicants will be invited to take a Predictive Admissions Test, which aims to identify entrepreneurial traits. If accepted, Singapore citizens and permanent residents have to pay a course fee of S$600 (US$492). Foreigners have to fork out the full amount of S$2000 (US$1,643), but the Institute does give out fellowships of between S$500-800 per participant.

Deadline for application is October 18, 2011. To apply, click here.
