The Blox

A Gamified Educational Bootcamp For Entrepreneurs. Filmed For A Documentary.

Somewhere between a classroom and a competition, between a documentary and a bootcamp, between the person you walked in as and the founder you walk out as, there is The Blox.

A week-long gamified entrepreneurship experience where contestants learn from world-class coaches in classes, workshops, and one-on-one sessions, and then prove what they have learned in live situational pitches that are graded, ranked, and scored in real time. A cumulative leaderboard determines who wins the cash prizes and awards.

The whole extraordinary week is filmed for a documentary. Because what happens inside these walls deserves to be seen by the world.

Everything that makes The Blox worth doing, worth sacrificing for, and worth talking about for years after it ends, comes down to three things:

1. Education

You are trying to build something from nothing with almost no money, almost no time, and almost no margin for error.

And your current entrepreneurship education is a coffee meeting twice a year, a highlight reel on Instagram, a book from 2013, and a business school curriculum that was designed to help someone else climb a corporate ladder.

That gap between what you need and what you have been given is not your fault. But it is your problem. And it is costing you every single day.

The Blox exists because you deserve education built for the actual conditions of early-stage entrepreneurship. Not the romanticized version. Not the theoretical version. The version where the money is almost gone and the clock is running and the stakes are higher than anything you have ever carried.

Real coaches. Real companies. Real urgency. Finally built for you.

2. Social Proof Assets

The hardest thing about building something new is not the product. It is not the operations. It is convincing a skeptical world that you are worth betting on before you have had the chance to prove it.

Anyone can look legitimate now. Anyone can manufacture the surface of credibility in an afternoon. Your customers know this and they are protecting themselves accordingly. They default to the known. The established. The proven.

What closes that gap is not a better pitch. It is breadcrumbs. Press. Photography. Video. Awards. The quiet signals that tell your customer what you already know to be true.

The traditional path to those signals takes years. The Blox delivers them in seven days.

Professional stage photography. A jumbo check photo for the top ten finishers. Guaranteed national press. A studio quality About Us video. A directory listing. A certificate of completion. Additional awards for roughly half of all contestants.

Spread them everywhere. Let them tell your story before you do.

3. Community

Nobody told you it would feel this lonely. And the worst part is it gets lonely in both directions. Too hard to share the hard parts. Too costly to share the wins. So you carry all of it alone and it compounds in ways that show up in your decisions and your confidence and your ability to keep going when nothing is confirming that you should.

The Blox was designed to solve this in a way that nothing else in the entrepreneurship world has figured out. Five consecutive days of living, learning, and competing alongside the same group of founders in an environment so intense and so intimate that it collapses years of trust-building into a single week. You do not exchange business cards here. You go through something together. And that shared experience creates a category of relationship that most people never find at all.

The alumni community that comes out of The Blox is extraordinary. Lifelong friendships. Business partnerships formed between sessions. Investors and board members discovered over dinner. A private network of people who were in that pressure cooker with you and will take your call at any hour because they remember exactly what it felt like and they will never forget.

Why would the most serious entrepreneurship education on the planet look like a television show?

Because a bootcamp without a camera is a room. And a room without competition is a lecture. And a lecture is exactly what has been failing entrepreneurs for decades.

The camera does something to a person that nothing else replicates. It raises the stakes. It demands presence. It creates a version of accountability that transforms how people show up, how hard they prepare, and how completely they engage with every moment of the experience. That transformation is not cosmetic. It is measurable. It is the difference between information heard and information absorbed.

The game does something equally irreplaceable. It tests everything learned under real pressure against real competitors in real time. And the science of learning is unambiguous on this point: competitive pressure drives retention at rates that passive education cannot approach.

Together they create something that has never existed before in entrepreneurship. An experience so effective it became a documentary. So transformative it became the most important week in most of our founders' lives. That is why it has to be filmed. That is why it has to be a game.

What if you want the results without the documentary? What if you want mentors, a mastermind, and a multi-year roadmap to seven figures instead?

We have multiple programs, the two that most consider at this phase are The Blox (the page you’re on right now), and BetaBlox. 

The Blox is one week. BetaBlox is several years. Both lead to the same place.

If the camera is not your thing or the one-week format does not fit your life right now, BetaBlox was built for founders who need the long game instead.

Paired mentors. Classes. Masterminds. Workshops. Everything that makes The Blox transformative, spread across years of sustained and deeply personalized support with no film crew required.

We take two percent of your next million in revenue. Roughly twenty thousand dollars total, paid progressively as your business grows. We are invested in your success because our compensation depends entirely on it.

Learn more and apply right here. Also, do us a favor: DON’T APPLY TO BOTH. Make an informed decision about which one sounds better for you right now and then apply to that one. If after learning more about that program you’d rather make a different decision - no worries - just head back to our site and apply to the one that is more closely aligned. 

The Greatest Show On Earth Entrepreneurship

Welcome To The Blox, The Most Educational Week Of Your Life. 

The Blox is a 5-day educational bootcamp that alumni have touted as being more educational than their entire MBA Program. It’s taught by Weston Bergmann, whose students did $250M+ in sales last year and who makes even the boring stuff wildly entertaining. You'll pitch,compete, get ranked daily, and spend 12+ hours immersed with founders who actually get it, all while eating buffet meals and forming the kind of friendships that only happen when you're all equally sleep-deprived and business-obsessed. Bottom line: it's the most intense, game-changing, community-building week of your entrepreneurial life, and it will directly impact your bank account.

Each Phase Builds On Top Of Itself

We first lay a mentorship-driven educational foundation. This accomplishes a number of things, but namely it will give you a deep understanding of at least what all your options are as far as your business model and how you’ll sustainably find your customers.

With that understanding, we can have dramatically more productive coaching sessions while we hone in on the specific tactics that will unlock your success on a small scale. Then in the final phase we’ll work to blow that out of the water.
