Generating the next wave of tech startups

Our startup generator and early-stage VC enables the world’s most brilliant and determined people to build global businesses from the ground up

Start making a real impact

Stuck creating gradual change at your job? Out of all ideas in the world only a fraction get executed. We bring exceptional individuals together from across the globe to work on some of the most exciting and crucial opportunities and problems of tomorrow.

A community of founders

We build strong founding teams

We help you find the right co-founder among 60–100 other carefully selected founders. We then connect you with already successful entrepreneurs from all over the world who help you succeed.

We invest in people, not ideas

We look for people with inner drive, grit and what we call a “spike”, something they’re exceptionally good at. All participants get an individual grant from day one, and select teams get investment to kick-start their companies.

A six month program from zero to seed

Joining Antler is a full-time commitment. Join without having a company, find your co-founder and start building from scratch with support from our global network. Select one of our cities, and get ready for a journey that will get you places you didn’t think was possible.
