UNWIND makes navigating the tough phases of the startup

journey more straightforward and stress-free.                                                                               

UNWIND is a free resource dedicated to helping founders navigate the challenges of letting go of their startups. We understand that behind every startup is a dream, countless hours of hard work, and a team that becomes like family. That's why we built UNWIND - to ensure founders have a supportive and trusted partner to lean on when things don't work as planned.

Whether you're thinking about or being forced to shut down, sell assets, restructure, or finalize dissolutions, our tools and community are here to support you.

WHY.

For years, we've been right there with you, at the heart of the tech ecosystem, as founders, investors, and operators. We've celebrated every milestone: the splashy funding rounds, the headline-grabbing articles, and every transformative new hire. We've seen firsthand how the community rallies during these moments of triumph—through vibrant LinkedIn posts, engaging comments, and cheerful tweets.

 

But what happens when the momentum slows? When growth stagnates, and the spotlight fades, many founders find themselves facing challenges in isolation, overlooked by the very investors and the community that once cheered them on.

 

This realisation sparked the creation of UNWIND. We're here to address a critical yet often ignored phase of most entrepreneurial journeys. UNWIND isn't just another service; it's a mission to support and stand by founders when the path forward isn't about acceleration but thoughtful navigation of more challenging choices—whether that's winding down, restructuring, or exploring asset sales and acquisitions. We're committed to dismantling the stigma associated with not following the traditional success narrative. Every end is a new beginning, and we believe in transforming these challenging transitions into opportunities.
