What happens after you submit

This is not a checkout — it's a process

1

Your application is reviewed

I personally read every application within 5 days. I'm looking for alignment — your background, what you're building, and whether the cohort structure fits where you are right now.

2

A short call — 20 minutes

If your application is a strong match, I'll reach out to schedule a quick conversation. It's not a sales call — it's a two-way check to make sure this is right for both of us.

3

If it's a yes on both sides, you're in

Your spot is confirmed with payment — 5,700 SEK, founding cohort rate. You'll receive all the details for September 12.

Application deadline: September 5, 2026. If you don't hear back within a week of applying, feel free to reach out at cristina@mendezpalencia.com.

What we ask of you

The room only works if everyone shows up

  • Show up to all 5 sessions The cohort learns from each other as much as from the material. One absent seat is felt by the whole room — we ask for attendance as a commitment, not a suggestion.
  • Do the work between sessions Each session has a short task to carry forward — a test, a conversation, a decision. The sprint only moves if you do.
  • Bring honesty, not a polished pitch The most useful thing you can bring to the room is the real version of where you are. We move faster on truth than on positioning.
  • Hold the space for others What's shared in the room stays in the room. This is a small cohort for a reason — the intimacy is the product.
