Building a generation of founders unbound by geography.
Our mission
Building a generation of founders unbound by geography.
The best student founders are known by student circles long before any investor.
Why is this?
Prestige distorts perception, causing mediocrity to be confused with greatness. Peers observe activity and contribution, not their credentials.
Society misvalues talent based on location. If someone has achieved so much without proximity to opportunity, imagine what they could do with it in reach.
A coffee chat can only assess one's skills in a snapshot of time. Measuring resilience requires observation over time, under sustained adversity.
Our model
ABG is one network of many builder community nodes. Each node is shaped and used freely by its members as a home base, coworking space, hardware makerspace, guest house, and place for fun and parties. Members of the ABG can travel to cities with sibling nodes and immediately have a place optimized for building and community to belong to.
Join your local node: (Providence) (Boston) (San Francisco)
