Startup Funders and Founders

We connect startup entrepreneurs with startup funding from angel investors, seed and venture capital. We attract the most innovative startups in both tech and non-tech industries.

At our events you can demo your startup, meet investors, and learn how to build startups from successful entrepreneurs.

Our regular events:

Life 3.0 - Startups That Change The Way You Live (Demo of early-stage startups)
Startup School, Startup Do-a-Thon (Learn from Investors and CEOs how to build your startup)

We also cover the following topics: disruptive startups, pitching your startup, investor relations, startup law, augmented reality, and mobile development.

Take a look at our entrepreneur community here, and join us to build successful start-ups.

We come in all kinds of varieties: single and married, local and international, younger and more experienced - you will fit in whoever you are.

Once in a while we take funders and founders fishing, hiking, and dining - so we'll have fun, too.
