Welcome to YouWeb Incubator

- A unique “Cradle to Exit” approach to helping brilliant technical minds achieve their ambitions!

We don’t accept business plans or teams. Just a single technical entrepreneur who doesn’t have an idea or a business plan, but a great mind and a huge passion to be a founder in Silicon Valley.

What We Do

YouWeb entrepreneurs spend a year coming up with ideas, building technologies and products, and launching their own companies – typically in consumer internet, social and mobile computing sectors. To ensure that financial constraints don’t limit our entrepreneurs, they are offered a competitive salary and benefits during their stay at YouWeb!

Created by Peter Relan, a successful serial entrepreneur, Silicon Valley executive, angel investor and technology veteran for over 25 years, YouWeb works with the best and brightest young technical talent in the industry to create new products and business models. If you want to start your own company with a high probability of success, YouWeb is the place for you.

Case Study

Jason Citron joined YouWeb at 22. A brilliant developer, who has been programming since middle school, Jason spun out OpenFeint from YouWeb, with Peter as co-founder in 2008, and by 2011 had built the largest social gaming network for smartphones in the world. YouWeb then found Gree Inc. a multi-billion dollar social gaming platform in Japan looking for a partner in the US to expand globally.  In April 2011, Gree bought OpenFeint for $104M and Jason continues to run the OpenFeint business for Gree as CEO of OpenFeint.
