What is Alchemist?

We’re an invite-only space for people who strive to do great work. Think of a modern-day Masonic Lodge crossed with a peer-to-peer version of Y Combinator.

There’s space to either get work done or hang out and chill.

Backstory & Motivation

This is all started by Nick, the founder of Wefunder (W13). While looking for an office space, I found this building for very cheap - thank you covid & recession.

I feel most fulfilled when I’m surrounded by a community of amazing people - the ones who build and create stuff. So that’s why I’m doing this.

Who is This For?

This is for builders, creators, and other outliers. This could include:

• Pre-pre-pre-seed founders. A solo founder who just quit your job? Congrats.
• Early-Stage Founding Teams. Best for teams of 6 or less.
• Late-Stage Founders. Run a 50+ person company and miss working alongside other founders? Work here every so often.
• Artists, Musicians, Engineers, Scientists, Designers. We’re not just for tech founders. We define creators and builders more broadly.

Some traits we like:

• Substance. Those who can dive into the weeds and have a substance about them; not those who pretend, play-act, or focus on the gloss.
• Doers. Those who do stuff, not just talk about it.
• Ambitious.They feel compelled to do something with their life.
• Slightly weird. But in a good way, you know? :)
• Good humans. Well-intentioned, benevolent, no sharks. f
• Willingness to share & help others. No lone wolfs.
