Investment thesis
X26 positions itself as the primary community and support network for ex-McKinsey founders, investors, and operators rather than a capital provider. It backs members from Day 0 — before fundraising or launch — and continues supporting them across their second and third ventures. Its offering centers on biweekly global events, workshops, YC application support with direct partner introductions, structured co-founder matching, immersive founder retreats, 1:1 mentorship, an active online community with curated deal-flow channels, and member-only databases of ex-McKinsey founders and investors. Programming is complemented by partnerships with institutions such as MIT and Google.
