Startup Leadership Program
Boylston St, Boston, Massachusetts, 02163, United States
Overview
The Startup Leadership Program (SLP) is a highly selective, global, world-class training program and lifelong global network for outstanding founders, leaders, and innovators who want to become startup CEOs. Classes are held on evenings or weekends. We take no equity. The program began in Boston in 2006 with seven Fellows (participants). It has run in 28 cities in 12 countries to date. Every year 15-25 Fellows join the program in every city. This year 400 Fellows will go through the program as a single class. Our program is truly global. You can start in one city, but attend any class in any city worldwide. During the program, and for life, you can apply to pitch at investor demo days on three continents, and build relationships with growing numbers of entrepreneurs in your sector.

Coinrule provides retail cryptocurrency investors with an automated trading platform that enables algorithmic trading without writing code. Users can create and test automated trading strategies to capture market opportunities and protect assets from adverse events. The product is integrated with global exchanges including Coinbase, Binance, Kraken and Bitstamp and is offered across four plans—one free and three paid tiers (Hobbyist, Trader, Pro). Founded in 2018 by Gabriele Musella, Oleg Giberstein and Zdeněk Höfler and based in London, Coinrule has joined Y Combinator's S21 cohort. The startup now has over 13,000 users trading assets worth £100m every month. Following its seed raise, the company intends to use the funds to expand operations and broaden its business reach. Coinrule provides a no‑code automated trading platform aimed at non‑professional traders, hobbyist investors and the general public to manage savings and execute strategies across multiple platforms. The product lets users automate investments to protect funds and capture market opportunities without coding. The company plans to grow its team and expand into the tokenized stock trading market. Coinrule says the funds will support its mission to democratize access to finance and foster financial inclusion. In 2020 the company more than doubled its user base, grew headcount, and now runs over ten thousand trades on the platform each month. Founded in 2017 and based in London, Coinrule recently completed a Seedrs crowdfunding round that validated its user‑focused vision.
