10.21.11 – Gruber selected to be a Mentor at Founder Institute’s Chicago Program

Cornerstone Angels Founder and Managing Director, Michael Gruber has been selected to be a Mentor at Founder Institute’s upcoming program in Chicago.

The Founder Institute is a global network of startups and mentors that helps entrepreneurs launch meaningful and enduring technology companies. Through their four month pre-seed incubator program, entrepreneurs can launch their company with expert training, feedback, and support from experienced startup CEOs, while not being required to quit their day jobs. Their unique Bonus Pool also shares equity upside with all participants, creating local, teamwork-based ecosystems where great startups can flourish. More information on the program is available here.

The Founder Institute carefully recruits approximately 25 Mentors per Semester, who are normally the CEO or founder of a successful startup. The Mentors are selected based on their ability to convey lessons learned on a topic in the curriculum and help participating Founders by sharing their relevant experiences. Mentors are accessible to Founders in the program during the sessions and through email. The shared equity upside of each Semester encourages supportive and collaborative relationships with the Mentors.
