When & where is this happening?
The entire program is online. It will kickoff on May 27th
Do I need to come from a specific backgournd to be part of this?
We don't expect you to come from any specific background. If you are curious, interested, excited to dive deep into the world of AI & GPT-4 as well as to build your first product with it, we will get you there. You can be a developer or non-deverloper
Who is it for?
BuildCamps is an experiential travel designed for people who want to build side-projects but lack the time and support of a tribe. It is for you if you want to be in a high-spirit environment with like-minded people and achieve a goal. The experience is designed to take you from sitting on the fence to launching a side project while traveling and having lots of fun.
What can I expect in these 7 days?
In the seven days, we will have 4 themes across which there will be masterclasses, group sessions, informal discussions, and lots of FUN as we go from ideation, building, and finally launching a side-project. Imagine everyday you wake up in resort in the beachtown surrounded by fellow builders, exchanging ideas, finding new friends, traveling Bali and learning to build & ship a side project.
What is the application process?
The cohort is open to 300 builders and below are a few things we will be looking to understand from the application form a) Your ability to think of possibilities & ideas b) Your motivation to learn AI, GPT-4 and build c) What you bring to the table
When do I need to pay?
You will only need to pay at final step for your spot confirmation, i.e, once you have received the acceptance email. The acceptance will happen based on your application details.
When will I know status of my application?
Once you apply, you will hear back from us within 7 days and if you are accepted, you can confirm your spot.
When is the last date to apply?
The last date for applications is May 15th, 2023
Where is the stay going to be?
The stay will be in specially selected villa in Bali. We are doing everything to ensure we create a space that maximizes interaction, jamming and building together.
Who will take care of food & drinks?
We will take care of 7 days of Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner, as well as evening snacks. Chai/Coffee will be on the house throughout the stay too. Drinks will be on the house on kickoff night.
Do I need to take leave from office to come to BuildCamps?
BuildCamps is a workcation initiative where you will work on your full-time job while learning to build & launch a side project. You do not need to take a leave from office, you can work remotely from Bali. The experience is structured in a way that gives you ample time to handle your office work. You will not miss out on any masterclass and sessions and by the time we end, you would have launched a side-project too
How much time will I get everyday to do my office work?
The experience is structured to have the majority of sessions in the morning or evening after office hours. You will get 5-6 hours in the weekdays to do your office work. The mornings, evenings and weekends will be dedicated to learning, ideating and building a side project.
What is the total cost?
If you get accepted, in order to confirm your spot you will need to pay INR 10K excl GST.
What is included & what is NOT included in the cost?
We are investing back the amount you are putting in to give you an experience that is going to be worth 10x. We have done the maths too, it costs more to do these at such a place with such people to build a side-project 👉 Stay in a villa in Bali 👉 7 days of Breakfast and Dinner, and evening snacks 👉 Coffee/tea on the house on all 7 days 👉 Kickoff party 👉 Masterclasses, hands-on sessions and 1-1 with Builders in Residence 👉 Access to the Build Community 👉 Jamming sessions, campfires and lots of fun activities! 👉 BuildCamps exclusive merchandise Here’s is all that is excluded 👉 Travel to Bali 👉 Airport to stay Transfers 👉 Cafe Visits & Local Explorations
What are the payment options available?
We would love to enable payment options like EMI, given we have kept it fairly priced and in order to keep the operations smooth + straightforward we haven't created it. Said this, we can absolutely figure things out on a case-to-case basis.
Are there any scholarships available?
Unfortunately, no. We are keeping this fairly priced in order to ensure we give time to it and at this price point, it will be criminal to think about offering scholarships. We believe the people we are looking to accept into the program will be able to afford it.
Can I attend with my family & friends?
Your family or friends can absolutely visit Bali during the same time. You can arrange their accommodation at nearby places and spend time with them in between the program schedule.If you wish to attend the program with family or friends, then both of you need to make individual applications, and get selected to attend.
Do I mandotorily need to stay in the villa?
Yes, the experience is designed in a way that you will get the full benefit only when you stay together in one place. The collaborations & connections will happen over a beer, group sessions, or other activities planned in the villa. Also, the budget includes the stay, and we will not be able to refund you any amount if you decide to stay outside.
Are drinks included in the cost?
No, drinks will not be covered for all the days. You will have drinks on the house on Kickoff eve. We will absolutely try to bring in drinks on other days as well, but let's not keep that as a hard & fast promise 😀
Is sight seeing included in the cost?
No, sightseeing is not included in the cost. The cost covers your stay, food, and program experience and any local travel cost will have to be borne by you. Said this, we are figuring out ways to do some travel together to popular places around Bali, but let's not keep that as a promise for the time being. We expect the selected Builders to go around and roam freely in Bali as they would in any other vacation.(We have budgeted enough time for the time in the programming)
Will the room be sharing?
Most likely yes, it will be double sharing. Though, given how we see Build friendships building up we do expect to see Builders crashing in the common rooms as well 😀
Do I have to mandatorily launch a side project?
At BuildCamps we want you to travel while achieving a goal you have been wanting for some time. So yes, we would definitely want you to launch a side-proejct. And we are confident that the environment, people, and design of the program will take you over the line.
How much time will I have to enjoy Dharamshala?
The seven days are structured in a way that morning and evenings you will have scheduled sessions. Afternoon time is open and free for you to go out and explore the hell out of Dharamshala. We have budgeted enough time for you to enjoy outside the cottage so much so that we believe in a couple of days, you might stop going out given how much action will be happening inside the villa😀
Can I check-in or check-out late than planned date?
The experience is designed in such a way that each day helps you learn, build relationships, collaborate, jam on ideas, music and more. We would not want you to miss out on any sessions if you check-in late. But if you absolutely must, please let us know in advance and we will handle it case by case basis. You will have to cover the expenses of the extra stay or book another stay if you are staying post the planned dates or coming in early.
