Unlike an accelerator, we do not take equity and we do not limit your time with us. FN strives to facilitate meaningful relationships with a network of peers who can help you get through any challenge and celebrate every achievement.<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"e19584-e195 x-acc-item\"><button id=\"tab-e19584-e195\" class=\"x-acc-header\" role=\"button\" type=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"panel-e19584-e195\" data-x-toggle=\"collapse\" data-x-toggleable=\"e19584-e195\"><span class=\"x-acc-header-content\"><span class=\"x-acc-header-indicator\"><i class=\"x-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-x-icon-o=\"&#xf078;\"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"x-acc-header-text\">What is involved in the approval process?<\/span><\/span><\/button><div id=\"panel-e19584-e195\" role=\"region\" aria-hidden=\"true\" aria-labelledby=\"tab-e19584-e195\" data-x-toggleable=\"e19584-e195\" data-x-toggle-collapse=\"1\" class=\"x-collapsed\"><div class=\"x-acc-content\">FN is an invite-only community. If you do not have an invite, you can find our membership requirements and request an invitation here. We'll research your background and reach out if we feel you could add value to the community.\nIf you already have an invite, you can apply before the monthly application deadline. Applications take 2 minutes to complete and are followed by an optional addendum that can take up to 10 minutes to complete. By the last Friday of the month, our Membership Committee, will review your complete application and you'll receive a notification of their decision on the same day.<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"e19584-e196 x-acc-item\"><button id=\"tab-e19584-e196\" class=\"x-acc-header\" role=\"button\" type=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"panel-e19584-e196\" data-x-toggle=\"collapse\" data-x-toggleable=\"e19584-e196\"><span class=\"x-acc-header-content\"><span class=\"x-acc-header-indicator\"><i class=\"x-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-x-icon-o=\"&#xf078;\"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"x-acc-header-text\">Does FN endorse members visa applications?<\/span><\/span><\/button><div id=\"panel-e19584-e196\" role=\"region\" aria-hidden=\"true\" aria-labelledby=\"tab-e19584-e196\" data-x-toggleable=\"e19584-e196\" data-x-toggle-collapse=\"1\" class=\"x-collapsed\"><div class=\"x-acc-content\">Yes.
