Terms in plain English
Passport is a six-month industry immersion program, not a cash-for-equity accelerator. It charges a program fee, and the fee amount is not published on the program site; qualified candidates are told to contact Moderne for details. The program does not include or promise investment. Moderne Ventures' funds invest separately from the program, at their own discretion. Companies meet roughly once a month at industry events, where they are connected to Moderne's network of over 1,500 executives and corporate partners across real estate, insurance, finance, and sustainability.
Who this is actually for
Later-stage startups, typically with a live product and revenue, that sell into real estate, insurance, finance, or adjacent industries and want structured access to corporate customers. It fits teams looking for distribution and enterprise pilots rather than a first check.
