FAQ
Parents & students ask
Q.Do you take equity in our startup?
Only for select incubation tracks where we co-build the MVP and provide capital. For most learners, our programs are pure-fee with zero equity.
Q.I don't have a co-founder. Can DIL × VVDX help?
Yes. Many of our founders meet co-founders and early team inside our community. We actively run match-making sessions.
Q.Is this only for tech startups?
No. We've supported D2C brands, services, content businesses and tech. The 'Validate → MVP → Pitch → Launch' loop applies to all.
