Barn VC Summer Builder Sprint

Barn VC is running a two-week builder sprint through Builders Club, designed for students, founders, developers, designers, and ambitious people who want to make real progress on something they're building.

Spots are limited to 25 teams.

Whether you're starting from scratch, validating an idea, launching a product, or trying to regain momentum on an existing project, the room creates the environment to help you move faster.

For two weeks, you'll work alongside a community of builders, participate in accountability sessions, get feedback from founders and mentors, attend office hours, and push toward one goal:

Ship something real.
