Welcome, Lab Teams!

This portal is your home for Redemptive Labs and includes all of the resources, templates, content and tools for running experiences.

Get Licensed

In order to run a Lab, a license is required. The first step is in-person training, followed by a virtual, self-paced course that culminates in submitting for a license. We estimate it will take your team 10 hours to go through the process.

Stay Connected

As you’re supporting entrepreneurs, we want you to stay connected to a support system through Praxis. We host Quarterly Calls for Lab Teams to keep you updated on the latest from Praxis, stay in touch with peers, and learn best practices. There’s also a Whatsapp Community for ongoing communication.

Dinners are 2.5 hour gatherings to introduce people to redemptive entrepreneurship and cultivate your ecosystem.

Labs are 3-day, 2-night gatherings to go deep with a group of 6-12 founders and mentors. (License required).

Run An Experience

We’ve created training, templates, content and tools to make it easy to serve founders, funders, and builders in your city. If you’re just starting out, we recommend hosting at least one Dinner and progressing to Labs.

Integrator’s Guide

As you plan your events and build your ecosystems, Labs operators have the option to use our tools, including Airtable and Squarespace. This is the starting place for understanding how to use these tools.

The Latest from Praxis

  • Post-Lab Playbook Groups

    After Founders go through a Lab, a great way for them to keep going is to create a Playbook Group. Use one of the Praxis Playbooks and go through 1 topic per session.

    Digital PDF’s are available for free or print books can be ordered online.

  • Prototyping: Capital Labs

    We’re prototyping Capital Labs in 2024, using the new Redemptive Investing and Philanthropy playbooks. We’ll share more as we develop and test this experience.

    For those who are interested in piloting, please email Jon. (Must have an active license and run at least 1 Lab).
