The Alumni Community
The two-week program is only the beginning of what has become a lifetime program for our alums.
After SV101, ICON continues the experience by:
-
Advising and making intros for as long and as often as our alumni startups need
-
Continuing to cultivate our alumni network with professional and social interactions, both in Israel and the Silicon Valley
-
Giving our alumni the opportunity to connect with founders from other batches and to discuss lessons learned, growth, and professional future once a year

“Getting all these growth hacks, and all this advice from these people that have gone through so much, is almost like getting cheat codes for a video game. ICON brings people here whose only goal is to make us better.”
