Have you heard of Upstate Upstarts? This local resource supports early-stage startups in our community through a collaborative list and fund. Think: Boyd Cycling, SuperMoon, and 100+ others.

Upstate Upstarts serves as a platform for investment opportunities and a nexus for collaboration. Anyone can submit an upstart to be on their list, join the team to help, or attend an event.

Plus, once a biz makes the list, they can receive monetary support from The Fund to help execute their plans.
