Mission

Celebrate Startups

Each week, we profile 1-2 startups on each of our network of community sites.

A little bit of free promotion can lead to more clients or users, a key hire, or a new investment. Many times, that can be the difference between success and failure for a startup.

Support Founders

Startups are started, built, and grown by entrepreneurs.

Supporting the people behind each startup is as important as supporting their startup and their community, if not more.

Promote Diversity

Founders come from a diversity of backgrounds and celebrating the benefits of a diverse founder community is our priority. We encourage startups founded by minorities, women, veterans, and individuals with disabilities to apply to be profiled on any of our community sites.

Connect Communities

With a network of sites across the United States (and soon the world), started.in helps founders connect with other founders in communities outside of their own. We foster local support and help facilitate outside connections.
