Entrepreneurship foreveryone, everywhere.
We are Builders + Backers, the team behind Builders Studio®. We help everyday people turn the ideas they cannot shake into real ventures, with less noise, less clutter, and a much clearer first step.
No pitch decks. No insider networks. No startup experience required.
“I’ve spent years watching people with genuinely good ideas talk themselves out of finding out if they’re real. That’s what we built Builders Studio® to fix.”
Donna Harris, CEO and Co-founder. Former Managing Director of Startup America and co-founder of 1776.
A method proven on the ground, now built into a platform.
We started with a simple belief: the next great venture can come from anyone, in any town, with any background. Over four years, our Idea Accelerator helped launch more than six hundred companies and equip over a thousand builders, most of whom had never started anything before.
Builders Studio® takes everything we learned guiding those builders and makes it available to anyone, anywhere.
