Where teens come to build and level up together.

Every two months we bring a large number of teenagers together to build the skills, projects, and lifelong friendships they'll need to take on the world – straight out of high school.

We work intensively every Saturday for 8 weeks to build something great and share the stories with a curated group of colleges, bootcamps, scholarships, and sponsors. Come join us.

Chapter 2, Season 1 starts January 14, 2023.

Try new things with new people to design what comes next.

At Factor you'll work with your Guide and learn from experts at companies like Snapchat, SpaceX, and Lululemon from all over the world to check out careers and lifestyles you never knew existed.

Once you find out what you love, what you're great at, and what the world will pay you for, you'll build the plan to get there as soon as possible.
