Reveal talents and create the greatest entrepreneurs of our time
Invest in seed capital
Ensure strict application of the LFA Process to accelerate value creation and increase the probability of exit
With our model, we want to bypass the major obstacles to the creation of a startup for a large majority of young entrepreneurs: the high risk of failure and the investment at the outset.
We believe that the world needs new talents and ideas to transform itself. That's why we created LFA, the startup studio that is revolutionising entrepreneurship and bootstrapping.
LFA has been hugely financed by a Japanese family office, hence LFA shares strong values coming straight from the land of the rising sun.
We select projects and entrepreneurs for their willingness to make the world a better place.
A startup studio creates startups, infusing time, effort, and cash in exchange for startup equity.
Yes you can! What you should know is that each cofounder will have to go through the entire recruitment process.
LFA’s investors are all members of the investment committee. They are independent from LFA and will give their decision for each investment in a startup project at the end of the 3 month-fast-track of the program. Their decision is made on 4 criteria: impact, digital, fast go to market and the scaling potential of the project.
No, entrepreneurs do not receive any direct or indirect remuneration until the SEED fundraising is completed, except in very special cases which must be justified on the basis of the specific conditions of the selected entrepreneur.
Yes, this is one of the prerequisites for joining the LFA program.
The upcoming cohort program will start in Paris at 40 rue du Colisée, starting on March 25, 2024 on a full-time basis.
