Your big ideas belong in tech

After you apply, we’ll send a submission confirmation email. Due to the number of applications we receive, we are unable to respond to questions about the status of your application. However, you can expect to receive an email from us with a formal update on your candidacy once we review your application.

You will first record and submit a video interview, where we score candidates on criteria including but not limited to the following: wireframes, alignment with our cohort theme,and time management skills. Afterward, the top 10-12 candidates will get offers to join the next cohort.

Applications for our "AI for Good" cohort are currently closed.
The Immerse program supports historically underrepresented founders and business sectors with great ideas and the determination to build them. Prior cohorts boast a diverse spectrum of founders across industries, company stage, and other company-building levers. Whatever their background, the most successful alumni invested deeply in problem identification and customer discovery. As a result, they applied to Immerse with a strong vision and conviction of what needed to be built during the program.

This year, we’re specifically targeting social impact-oriented businesses that plan to leverage AI. Our definition of social impact is largely inspired by the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals, which are aimed at improving global quality of life across various sectors. Learn more about Immerse’s vision behind pursuing social good startups on the blog.

With this cohort, we’re also prioritizing hosting in-person engagements for Immerse members. If you are a founder in the greater NYC tri-state area, we especially encourage you to apply to the program.
