Karman-Line Acceleration Program

The Karman Line marks the boundary between Earth and space—where limits end, and new possibilities begin. Named after Theodore von Kármán (1881-1963), a Hungarian-American engineer and physicist, this line symbolizes the leap into the unknown and the drive to break barriers. At Karman Line Acceleration (KLA), we provide a comprehensive curriculum and hands-on support to help founders launch, grow, and scale their startups.
