Join us & build what you always wanted

Eddison

An incubator for the dreamers.

You have an idea you can't stop thinking about. Maybe you've had it for years. Most people around you call it a nice dream and go back to work. We think the best things are built by curious people who mix art and technology, and who keep going after everyone else has stopped. Eddison exists so those people get the money, the team and the room to build.

We're for the people who keep trying to change the world and believe their ideas make it better. We're not for people who do it for the money. We want people who build legacies, original ones, and who do things their own way.

Most things in the world were made by people who were laughed at. People who were told they weren't fit for it. Elon Musk was pushed out as CEO of PayPal. We believe truly great things are built by unconventional people. We are builders first.

If money is your motivator, fuck off. If you want to build something to impress somebody, fuck off.

At the end of your life you should be able to say: I tried. I lived and built what I truly wanted, and I don't regret it.
