“AI is not just giving founders better tools. It is changing the economics of venture creation itself.”
Hyunjin Kim — Founder & Chair, INSEAD AI Venture Lab
Global Presence

Meet some of the founders who built with us.

“The Lab was pivotal for us. Winning demo day gave us real credibility in investor conversations and pushed us to sharpen our thesis at a critical stage. It's one of the few programs that combined genuine capital with substantive support.”
Gadi.ai
“The sprint has been incredible. It completely changed my perspective on what it means to be a non-technical founder. I've been pushing myself to integrate AI across our entire SG&A stack — evolving Gadi from an AI product into an AI company.”
“The Sprint's most valuable gift wasn't teaching us what to build — it was teaching us how to know when we're building the wrong thing.”
Jess Tang
Mavic.AI
“Our 8-week ambition was to double the company valuation from $10M to $20M. We believe we're there.”
Casey Potenzone

Research Backing
“AI is not just lowering costs — it is raising the ceiling of firm performance. Our research shows that firms that learn to reorganize around AI discover 44% more use cases, generate nearly 2x the revenue, and need 40% less capital. The Sprint is where this science meets the field.”
Research
Our work has produced research on how AI-native firms organize and when AI improves firm performance.
