2 Cities

Medellín and Mexico City. NextGen runs wherever an EntreHouse chapter runs.

Why we built this.

Talent is evenly distributed. Rooms are not. Most entrepreneurs under 24 will never sit across from an operator who has actually built past $2M. We can fix that in the cities we call home.

Real Operators

No gurus. No course sellers. Every mentor is a vetted EntreHouse member who cleared the same standard the room is known for: built, scaled, or exited.

Earned, Not Bought

There is no ticket price and there never will be. Seats are earned through the application, the same way everything at EntreHouse is earned.

Local by Design

Mentorship happens in person, in the same rooms our members gather in. Where a chapter exists, NextGen exists alongside it.

The Program

Three rooms. One ladder.

NextGen is built as a progression. Everyone starts in the open room. The cohort is earned from there. A select few are matched one to one with a member.

Open Sessions

Monthly talks and roundtables hosted at our chapter venues. A member teaches from experience, then the floor opens.

Hosted in Medellín and Mexico City
Taught by vetted members, never hired speakers
Application required, capacity capped

The entry point

The NextGen Cohort

A 12-week program for a small class of builders. Weekly working sessions, real accountability, and a final showcase in front of the membership.

12 to 15 mentees per cohort, per city
Curriculum built by operators, not academics
Ends with a showcase dinner

Earned from the sessions

1:1 Mentorship

The select few. A six-month match with one EntreHouse member, chosen for fit with what the mentee is building and where they want to go.

By invitation, from cohort performance
Monthly sessions with a standing agenda
One mentor, fully committed

The standard holds at every age.

NextGen is free, but it is not casual. We select for motion: something shipped, sold, built, or attempted with intent. Selective by design, at every level of the house.

Apply to NextGen

What we look for

24 or younger at the time of application
Evidence of motion: a product, a project, revenue, or a serious attempt
Based in or near Medellín or Mexico City
Coachable. Shows up. Does the work between sessions.

01Apply

Tell us what you are building, what you have tried, and where you are stuck. Age and city, proof of motion, and a short written application. No pitch deck required.

02Review

Applications are reviewed by members of the local chapter. We are not looking for polish. We are looking for people who will use the room well.

03Access

Accepted mentees join the next open session in their city. From there, the ladder is yours to climb: sessions, cohort, and for a select few, a one to one match.

For Members

Pass it down.

Every member was 24 once, with no room to walk into. NextGen is how this community pays that debt forward. Mentoring is open to members in good standing, and the commitment is deliberately light.

Volunteer as a mentor Nominate a young founder

One session a month. Teach an open session, host a cohort table, or take a 1:1 match. You choose the level.

We handle the logistics. Venues, scheduling, curriculum, and follow-up are run by the chapter team.

Sponsorship, not tuition. Program costs are covered by the community fund and member sponsorships. Mentees never pay.

Questions, answered.

Is it really free?

Yes. Every seat is sponsored by EntreHouse members and the community fund. There is no fee at any level of the program, and nothing is sold to mentees at any point.

Do I need to have a company already?

No. You need evidence of motion. A product, a side project with users, first revenue, or a serious documented attempt all count. A business plan alone does not.

I just turned 25. Can I still apply?

The line is 24 or younger on the day you apply, and it holds. If you are past it, the main EntreHouse membership process is open to founders at the $2M+ standard.

Where do sessions happen?

In person, in Medellín and Mexico City, at the same venues our chapters use. NextGen expands city by city as new chapters open. There is no remote track.

Does NextGen lead to EntreHouse membership?

Not automatically. Membership has its own standard and it never bends. What NextGen gives you is the thing that matters earlier: operators in your corner while you build toward it.

Who are the mentors?

Vetted EntreHouse members. Founders who have built, scaled, and exited, with $13.2M in average revenue across the community. Every mentor volunteers their time.
