It's safe to say that the Discipulus Cohort was a game changing experience. The opportunity to learn from established entrepreneurs, dedicate time to creating my initial pitch deck and presenting it to world class investors was an incredible opportunity that every defense tech founder needs.

“

What an incredible experience with Discipulus last week. Alongside 9 other focused, aligned, and moral young people I propelled myself and my startup with an intensity lacking most everywhere else. Excited for what is next for Discipulus!

DV packed more value into a week than others could in a quarter. The intensity, a hallmark of El Segundo, was exceptional, propelling our company forward. The DV team quarterbacked our fundraising efforts, orchestrating back-to-back meetings with world-class operators and investors. If you're looking to generate significant momentum in your company's early stages, this is the definitive program.

Discipulus Cohort was the launchpad Vanguard needed to transform our vision into reality. Since joining, we've raised a pre-seed round, initiated a CRADA partnership, and are in talks with some large customers for our product integration. The guidance, network, and momentum we gained through Discipulus have been instrumental in driving both our tech and partnerships forward.

“

Everyone in our cohort was mission aligned from day one and it created a profound bond between everyone in the batch. DV condensed several months of value in just a week. It set the stage immensely well for our pre-seed round and the team was there throughout the process to help us succeed. Discipulus will be ground-zero for many generational companies and will definitely be a significant factor in restoring western prosperity.

Jakob is a patriot, whose intense dynamism throughout the program was infectious. Beyond the Cohort, DVs mix of industry acumen and extensive network has allowed us to grow quickly without compromising our core mission. Can't wait to see what's next for El Segundo!

From day one, Discipulus brought together founders who were deeply mission-aligned and serious about building enduring American companies. That alignment created trust, speed, and an uncommon sense of purpose. It's rare to find a program that pushes this hard while staying true to first principles.

“

Discipulus brings together talented, ambitious founders who believe America can and should be building the future — and backs that belief with the funding to make it happen.

“

The Discipulus Cohort was one of the best experiences of my life. The density of engineering talent among the founders in the cohort is unmatched, and each founder pushes one another to become stronger, smarter, and better at building their company. The Discipulus Ventures team provides expert training for fundraising and company operations which enabled us to close an oversubscribed pre-seed fundraise in 1 month. Couldn't be more grateful for my experience with DV, and can't wait to see the next batch of exceptional American founders!

“

Discipulus gave us the highest ROI of any accelerator I have ever participated in. Jakob and his team worked diligently to help us craft the messaging of our highly technical business that ultimately led to a seed round that far exceeded what we had projected. If you are building something ambitious, I cannot recommend Discipulus enough.
