No guesswork.
Start with the terms.

No fixed idea is required by the application. You can bring an idea, a direction, or be open to others’ ideas. Your gift, expertise and goal are all part of the profiling process.

Applicants are profiled before admission. Teams of three or four are deliberately composed for complementary strengths, rather than formed by chance at a networking event.

At incorporation, APX Vision holds 4% formation equity. The founders share the remaining 96% equally: 32% each in a three-founder team, or 24% each in a four-founder team. Optional post-Forge advisory equity terms are [TO CONFIRM].

The form asks how many weekly hours you can commit. Matching and sprint duration, delivery format, application fee decision, and Forge Track fee, duration and inclusions are [TO CONFIRM]. No fee or schedule is implied while these remain open.

No. It is a founder-formation program. It is not for people looking only for funding, a job or a networking club. Admission, investment and a successful company outcome are not guaranteed.

No. Cohort ventures belong to the founders. The program is not recruitment into Cyrille’s other businesses.

The planned windows are January, mid-March, May, mid-June, mid-September and November 2027. Exact start dates, application-opening dates, deadlines and cohort capacity are [TO CONFIRM].

Once live intake is enabled, your application will be stored securely and you will receive a confirmation email. The team will review your profile. Whether a profiling interview follows, and the response timeline, are [TO CONFIRM].

The paid Forge Track and post-Forge advisory relationship are optional. Their specific scope, fees, duration and advisory equity terms are [TO CONFIRM].

No. The name shares APX Vision’s diamond philosophy and the Rough Diamond novel series. The novels are not presented as the cohort curriculum.
