Sharing 13 years of Grishin Robotics' investment expertise with the next generation of UK founders. We are building London's hub for pre-seed and seed startups bridging the digital and physical worlds: from AI-First Software and Productivity Tools to Next-Gen Robotics.
Led by Dmitry Grishin ($5.7B IPO founder turned VC) and a team of seasoned operators. We bring deep operational expertise, delivered by practitioners who understand both the founder’s journey and the investor’s logic. This is a direct transfer of high-velocity standards and global mindset to the London ecosystem.
Most accelerators take 6–10% equity for minimal investment and mentorship. We believe this dilutes founders too early and makes future fundraising harder.
Your £1,000 contribution covers a portion of program costs—we subsidize the rest. This allows us to deliver high-impact support without taking equity. You retain full ownership and stay attractive to investors.
If we choose to invest in your company, we do so separately on market terms—not at a micro-valuation in exchange for program access. This keeps our incentives aligned with yours.
We’ve built a focused, intense curriculum to bridge the distance between building product and building a venture-backable company.
Stop guessing what investors want. Learn directly from experienced VCs how early-stage teams, technology, and markets are assessed. Refine your pitch and positioning with direct, honest feedback to raise at true market valuations—not guesswork.
Gain unfair access to the executives and partners who matter most to your industry. Through curated events and warm introductions, we put you in the same room with potential clients and strategic allies, turning cold outreach into high-value relationships.
Join a curated cohort of peers tackling the same challenges. Founders consistently rate our community as a top value driver—creating a space for shared struggle, collective intelligence, and lasting partnerships.
