EWOR

Sep 2025 - Current (10 months)

EWOR is a Fellowship (not an accelerator!) that accepts the top 0.1% of founders striving to become unicorns. Virtual-first, borderless model. $500,000 investment per founder. I focus on identifying early, focused, founders who can point to exceptional previous success (in any field). What makes you stand out? What have you done and what risks have you taken that showcase you thinking differently, bucking trends, and achieving well beyond your [former] peers? Want to talk? Drop me a note on LinkedIn and my team or I will follow-up.

The Autopilot Fund focuses on early-stage companies that serve and accelerate how companies operate. More about us: https://autopilot.fund/ Operations span various “departments”: could be in engineering, operations, sales, finance, product, customer success… the questions we ask ourselves are: 1. Is this a founding team so capable that others should be afraid to go against them? 2. Do they understand the problem better than anyone, and have special “founder-market” fit? 3. Will they rest until they have dragged the world kicking & screaming into their vision of the future? 4.
