Spring 2026 | Venice, CA | 12 Weeks

Giraffe Accelerator

Giraffes are visionary, large-hearted, and connected to our planet in a way that no other animals are. We're ending the toxic extractive unicorn era and moving into a regenerative, sustainable economic paradigm where we take care of each other.

The Giraffe Accelerator is a three-month, in-person program in Venice for founders building companies that meaningfully support human flourishing.

We believe entrepreneurship is not just about speed — it's about perspective.

A giraffe can see further than any other land animal. Not because it moves faster, but because it stands higher. It has both a wide panoramic view of the ecosystem and the ability to focus in on what matters most.

A Giraffe Entrepreneur builds the same way.

You're not just building a product.
You're building inside an ecosystem — of customers, collaborators, capital, culture, and community.

Over 12 Weeks, We'll Help You:

Clarify your venture's purpose, positioning, and model
Develop your offering with direct community feedback
Access aligned capital through curated investor events
Build relationships with mentors across wellness, tech, finance, and media
Test and iterate through live experiences and programming
Leverage The Oasis + Grateful Giraffes network (~1,000 members / 15,000+ attendees)
Work alongside Gigi — our AI venture support agent — to accelerate research, outreach, marketing, and ops
