In this interview excerpt, Ajinomatrix CEO François Wayenberg describes the Founder Institute as a highly practical, hands‑on accelerator that forces founders to execute every task related to their business. He highlights the program’s rich ecosystem of mentors, co‑founders, and working groups that provide continuous support. Wayenberg contrasts his experience with Y Combinator, noting that while he was ranked among the top 10% of founders there, the Founder Institute pushes deeper into task execution, likening the process to athletic training where founders are constantly working on and refining their skills.
