We Build the World We Want to Live In.
Our Vision
To forge a future where the merit of an idea, not the age of its founder, is the sole catalyst for innovation.
Our Mission
To empower underestimated founders by providing a high-velocity ecosystem of hackathons, incubation, and peer collaboration, enabling them to build products and achieve traction as the primary path to success.
Our Story Didn't Start with a Business Plan.
It Started with a "No."
As a young founder with a validated product, I stepped into venture capital and found skepticism about my age instead of questions about my traction. The message was unmistakable. This system was not built for me. Capital can discriminate, and brilliant ideas often fade in the silence of a locked-down industry.
PENG was born from that frustration. It is our answer to being told we are too inexperienced. It is our proof that ambition has no age requirement.
So We Built Our Own System.
So We Built Our Own System.
When the door stayed shut, we built the launchpad ourselves. PENG is a builder-first platform where action replaces permission and shipping beats talking. It’s where you find your crew, turn momentum into traction, and let the work speak for itself. If you’re ready to build, start here.
Our Manifesto
-
Your repository is your resume. Your MVP is your pitch deck. Ship before you pitch—commits, issues, and releases show how you think and execute. We reward progress over promises and working software over perfect narratives.
-
We don't chase investor validation; we chase user obsession. Activation, retention, and referrals are the only votes that matter. If people rely on it and come back, the story writes itself—and capital follows the curve.
-
Success is not a solo mission. A rising tide lifts all rockets. We debug at 2 AM, swap playbooks, and open distribution for each other. When one project ships, the whole network learns faster and reaches farther.
-
We judge ideas, not birthdates. Clarity of problem, speed of execution, and evidence of traction outweigh years on a résumé. Talent compounds at any age—the work speaks first.
