Wintercircus is back for good.

WITH A FUNDAND MISSIONTO CREATE IMPACT.

The Wintercircus Fund’s mission is to democratize access to our network, knowledge and spaces. While making our tech & entrepreneurial ecosystem a more diverse community for everyone to thrive in.

Underprivileged individuals and impact organizations are invited to participate. By breaking financial barriers, we ensure diverse voices can contribute to building a better, more equitable future.

Diversifying our network through collective wild cards.

At Wintercircus Collective, we unite entrepreneurial minds and forward-thinkers in a vibrant space to connect, create, and grow.

To ensure financial barriers don’t limit access, we offer Collective Wild Cards, which are 1-year memberships for aspiring entrepreneurs and academics needing financial support. Members join a vibrant community that inspires bold ideas and inclusive progress, for a better tomorrow.

Together, we build a better future through entrepreneurship, technology, and collaboration.
