Balderton Launched

Turning an idea into a global business doesn’t happen overnight. And those very early days can be some of the toughest to navigate.

Applications are now open for our next cohort, starting in March 2025.

Open for all

We encourage founders of all backgrounds and experience levels to apply, and are committed to creating a diverse group working across a broad range of sectors.

“We were so grateful for the opportunity to be a part of Launched. The Balderton team were generous with access to fantastic resources and guidance that supported us in the early days of building Tracebit but this was thoughtfully balanced with leaving us plenty of time and space to focus on what mattered – building a great company”

Andy Smith Co-founder & CEO, Tracebit

“Balderton’s incubator space was the perfect place to start Nested. As a 2nd time founder I was eager to avoid distractions and focus on the few things that mattered to get to Product-Market Fit. Working out of Balderton was key to this and not only saved us a tonne of admin and overhead but it’s also a great space with great people around, both from the Balderton investment team and other talented founders.”

Matt Robinson Founder, Nested

“When joining Launched, we were still validating the first versions of our idea. Within a few weeks after finishing the programme, we raised a very successful seed round. The acceleration from being surrounded by other founders going through the same situation and investors for sparring was enormous. Balderton’s Launched programme is the ideal environment for building a community of founders that turn into friends – we’re super grateful to Balderton and would do the programme again in a heartbeat.”

Jan Philipp Haas Founder, Stealth
