Entrepreneur & IE Business School Professor
Hi, I'm Aditya Bajaj – I've built and exited startups, made mistakes, and learned what works. This program isn't theory — it's the structured path I wish I had when I started. Now I teach at IE Business School and mentor 50+ founders each year.
And how our program helps you avoid these common pitfalls.
Hear from founders who've launched with us.

CEO of NextGen Solutions
We welcome tech-enabled ideas across various industries. The key is that you're passionate about solving a real problem and are committed to building an MVP. Whether it's SaaS, a mobile app, e-commerce, or AI, if it can be prototyped and tested, it's a good fit.
No, solo founders are welcome. However, having a strong team can be an advantage. We evaluate applications based on the idea, the founder's commitment, and market potential, regardless of team size at this early stage.
This program focuses on mentorship and product development to get you MVP and investor-ready. While we don't provide direct funding as part of the 8-week launchpad, we help you prepare for fundraising and connect you with our network of angel investors and VCs upon successful program completion and traction.
This is an intensive program. Expect to dedicate significant time each week to workshops, mentorship sessions, and working on your product. Founders who make the most progress are typically able to commit at least 20-30 hours per week to their startup during the program.
Stop dreaming and start building. The Zero To One Launchpad is your fastest path from idea to impact.
