Startup
Summer Camp
No startup yet? Apply with an idea, or with nothing but the itch. We ask commitment, not credentials.
Six weeks at TAG.
One goal: money-making startups.
A six-week event focused on launching startups, validating ideas against the real market, and learning to sell what you build. Not a course. Not an incubator. An event: a start, an end, a scoreboard, and real stakes. This is for people who commit. That's the whole ask.
TAG sells office space. This campaign exists to fill it.
We could have bought ads. Building is more fun. So this summer we're launching our own products, in a full office, with people who want the same.
We're not organizing this from the sidelines. We're launching our own apps right next to you.
Who is this for?
Simple: anyone who wants in on startups. You want to build a product of your own, make your own money, and get the freedom to do whatever you want with your time. That's the whole filter.
You're either:You want to do startups.
No product yet, maybe not even an idea. You're done watching other people launch.
You have an idea and half a product.
You started. You never shipped. It’s been "almost ready" for months.
You shipped. Now it needs to grow.
A live side project: zero revenue or the first euros in. You want to see how far it really goes.
You want to do this with people.
You're building alone at your kitchen table. What's missing isn't skill. It's people.
Why together
Alone, your project loses to your calendar every time. In a group that shows up every week, it doesn't. We keep each other accountable. That includes us: we're building our own apps right here.
Why at TAG
A space full of builders who ship every month, an audience we point at your startup, and a network of people who've done it before. You bring the hours. TAG brings the ecosystem.
Incubation.
Without the program.
You apply, you get everything around the work: the environment, the commitment, the accountability, the people, and eyes on what you build. Building is cheap now. Attention and momentum are the expensive part.
The content machine
The machine that ran the MEGATHON campaign runs all summer, pointed at your startup. Get featured, get eyes, get validated faster.
A desk at TAG
Your spot in the space, through the camp and beyond, surrounded by people doing exactly what you’re doing. No empty-apartment energy.
Free tokens & gear
AI credits and tooling to build fast. Your stack is covered. You bring the idea and the hours.
Experts, on call
People who’ve validated, launched and sold before: there when you’re stuck, not lecturing when you’re not.
The co-founder you’re missing
Nobody builds alone here. Come with a team or find one at kickoff: people who hold you accountable when motivation dips.
Demo Day
End the summer pitching your numbers to a serious jury: founders, CTOs and VCs from the TAG network. You work toward a room that matters.
Minimal program.
On purpose.
We believe in autonomy and the accountability of a good group. We won't hold your hand. We will hold you accountable. Enough structure for the people who are going to make it. No busywork for anyone.
Get in
Solo or as a team, with your startup, your idea, or just yourself. Takes five minutes.
Lock it in
Form your team, cut your idea down to something launchable, set your targets.
Validate. Ship. Iterate.
Sell it before you build it, ship what survives, loop until the numbers move. One check-in a week, leaderboard on the wall.
Show your numbers
Your product, your process, your revenue, in front of a room that matters.
One season. Hard dates.
Sign up now, kick off July 27, ship by September 4. There is no next cohort planned. This is the summer one. And it's capped: 30 spots. Quality over quantity.
Applications open
Apply with your startup, your idea, or just yourself.
Applications close
Teams locked. No late entries. It’s a season, not a subscription.
Kickoff: day one
Camp starts. Ideas cut small, targets set, first calls made the same week.
Demo Day
Six weeks later: show your numbers to the room. Then the party.
Progress round. Every team shows where it stands, including us. Leaderboard gets updated, pivots get decided.
Expert workshops when experts land: validation, pitching, pricing. Run by the experts themselves. Join if it helps, skip if you're shipping.
The content machine and sponsor tokens run in the background. You build, the ecosystem works for you.
A pressure cooker.
Good vibes included.
Together beats alone. Validation from your team, from the group, from the market. In that order, fast.
Revenue is the scoreboard. Who gets there first? Who gets the most? Friendly stakes, real money.
Traction gets rewarded. Hit your numbers and we push harder: more visibility, more intros, more help.
Summer is the deadline. Everyone else is on a beach towel. You’re launching a company. September will show the difference.
Summer is six weeks long.
What do you have in September?
Apply solo or as a team. 30 spots. It's a physical space, not a webinar.
