Job description:
This is a six-week residency programme, not salaried employment. Read on for what it actually offers.
About Saff
Saff is a six-week residency for Muslim founders who have already shipped. You move into one house in London with nine other founders, build a go-to-market system around your company, and close with a demo day where half the room are buyers.
What you walk out with
- A mapped list of your hundred target accounts and thirty dream buyers, built in week one
- A live pipeline: buyer meetings engineered during the season, not after it
- Residency fully covered: travel, stay, food, production
- Mentors in residence, plus visiting operators and angels, weekly angel dinners
- Capital: a flexible offer within guardrails, £20k to £100k, structured around your stage
- London demo day with investors and buyers who watched you build
- A personal episode arc and a lifetime seat in the Saff alumni row
Who we're looking for
- Already building: you've shipped a product with real users or early revenue, no ideas on paper
- Able to commit: you can live and build in residence in London for the full six weeks
- Muslim founders building across the UK, Europe, or North America, solo or co-founded
- You know your buyer: you can name the five customers that would change your company, and we'll help you reach them
Positive action statement
Saff runs under the positive action provisions of the Equality Act 2010 (Section 158), in response to documented underrepresentation of Muslim founders in UK venture capital: 3% of UK venture deals go to a Muslim founder against 5â7% of the population (source: proprietary analysis of 953 deals across the UK's top 20 venture funds). This programme is a proportionate measure addressing that disadvantage and is open to Muslim founders building across the UK, Europe, and North America.
