Wrapped up our 2nd cohort. Here's how it went.
Wrapped up our 2nd cohort. Here's how it went.Plus: Announcing BIPF3, our 3rd cohort today [details inside] 🎉Ok, not going to lie but I just absolutely cannot believe what I am about to write in the next line: We just wrapped up our 2nd cohort of the year for the “Build In Public Fellowship“. Why? Because it feels like a week ago when I made the decision to start the Fellowship (Jan 31, 2023) and it feels like yesterday when the 2nd cohort went live. (It was May 24th, 2023) Time flies when you’re having fun. I loved the 1st cohort but I had a lot of fun designing and delivering the 2nd cohort because I got to iterate and improve on a lot of things to make sure they are up to the mark. Wait, you know what BIPF is about, right? If not, here’s a quick blurb:
On this edition, I figured I’ll share public reflections and lessons learned based on my journey of running BIPF2 filled with a tight-knit group of 15 founders from 6 countries. BIPF2 Recap:

That’s it. Thanks for reading my public reflection on how the cohorts are going! Final note:Today, I am super excited to announce that the applications for the 3rd cohort of the Build In Public Fellowship (BIPF3) are now open. Cohort 3 kicks off on Aug 7, 2023 and runs until Sep 15, 2023. If you're convinced on the upside of building your project in public (whether it is your business, newsletter, Twitter etc.) and want to have fun doing it consistently, then BIPF3 is the perfect opportunity for you. To apply, simply fill out the application form. Once you have filled out the form, it’ll lead to a 1:1 call with me to talk about your goals and we can assess mutual fit :) In our 2 cohorts so far, we have attracted ambitious founders and creators like you from a range of backgrounds and profiles (On Deck alumni, Y Combinator alumni, bootstrapped founders doing $20k+ MRR, established founders with multiple exits) .. all with a frame of mind to learn and lift each other up. Which is pretty rate and magical as you can imagine. Here's the word of mouth and social proof from BIPF Alumni. Here is an overview of the program in detail here. If you have any questions or need further information, please feel free to reply. Once again, the link to application is here. PS: Please note that each cohort’s spaces are limited as we want to have small and intimate groups (vs mass market cohorts) so please apply ASAP. If you join by July 14th, you'll be eligible for an early bird special rate of 25% off. KP's Column is free today.
