Benefits

The Camelback Fellowship offers support through:

  • Coaching: 1:1 relationship with a coach who creates a road map specifically focused to help you reach established goals.
  • Capital: Camelback invests in each organization they support, and tailors funding levels for the different stages of acceptance for each track. Ventures are in a “startup” phase and receive $40,000 in the “friends and family” round. For-profits and hybrids receive as a SAFE note or some other alternative funding vehicle; nonprofits and schools receive as grants.
  • Connections: meetings with investors, potential partners and customers, and content experts.
  • Community: tight-knit experience through the entire cohort and within tracks, as well as extended Camelback family (including past and present Fellows and Startup Coaches, as well as friends who can’t wait to support new Fellows).
  • Curriculum: an intense program they have created to empower undervalued entrepreneurs.
