Telora is the fellowship that helps hackers start startups.
We are accepting applications for the fellowship starting in January 2025.

Our application process is designed to help improve your odds of success as a founder, even if you aren’t ultimately selected for the fellowship. It’s light on words and heavy on actions.

The application form should take about a minute to complete. We will then interview as many applicants as we can. If you seem promising, we’ll immediately start working 1:1 with as many of you as we can. The sooner you apply, the more time we’ll have to help you build your startup.

We want to fund as many teams as possible. As soon as it’s clear yours should be one of them, we’ll extend an offer to join Telora and transfer an initial deposit of $10,000 to help cover your legal and relocation expenses.

Shoot your shot. If you don’t apply, you can’t get accepted.

Here are the key dates:

  • November 15: Application deadline. You can apply after the deadline, but we may not have time to review it.

  • December 8: Decision deadline. We plan to extend all offers to join Telora by this date. Let us know in your application if you need a decision sooner and we will consider it.

  • January 6: First day of the January fellowship. We reserve the right to cancel your fellowship if you haven’t moved to Miami by this date. We can make exceptions for unusual circumstances, but please let us know as soon as possible.

We respond to every application, but won’t explain our decision. We’d rather be upfront about what most investors try to conceal: We’re bound to make mistakes and can’t accept as many people as we’d like. Don't take it personally if we don’t accept your application.
