FOUNDER · HEAD OF STARTUPS
Head of Startups. One per country.
We are looking for founders, not employees.
Step away from the office and think big on a quiet island.
Build, think and connect with founders from other countries.
What the Head of Startups gets
- 50% of the profit of every startups traveller from your country
- Free accommodation: up to a week a month, the best room available
- Your name on the Founders wall: “Founded by the Heads of Startups 2026”
- Yours to pass on: transfer your seat whenever you like
The startups week in Sumba
A startup week in Sumba: focused work mornings, founder sessions and talks organised with local partners, ocean afternoons and evenings with founders from other countries.
Your role
You are the link for the startup people of your country: founders, operators, investors, communities and friends who build things.
Founders, not employees.
We have already invested more than €10 million in the courts, cabins and homes of Eco Beach City, and over €50 million is planned, in phases, on a large piece of land. We ask one person per country to put in too: €3,500, once.
The seat, plainly
- €3,500, once. Free to apply: you pay only if you are chosen, after a 15-minute call.
- At once, or €500 + 5 × €600. 14 days to change your mind.
- It is a title in the community: not property, not a share, not an investment and not a job.
- Stays: up to a week a month, subject to availability; €65 cleaning per stay.
This is Eco Beach City
A town by the sea in Sumba, one hour by air from Bali, already built and lived in: 24 homes, padel and tennis courts and a coworking by the ocean, with a local team on site 365 days a year.
