Whether you’re starting a company, building your first professional network, or just need help negotiating a raise, we support our Fellows for life.
We invest the first check into companies our fellows start or join.
Fellows get access to exclusive events and connect with others who share passions in engineering, design and product.
We support our fellows for the entirety of their career(s), from landing unique opportunities to guiding them through transitions.
Tina Jiang
General Manager, Vial
Contrary has been the most impactful organization I’ve been a part of. They were instrumental in helping me land my previous product role at Faire, and have always been around to bounce startup ideas off of, too.
