What is Startup Grind?

Startup Grind was founded in 2010 when our founder, Derek Andersen got some friends and fellow entrepreneurs together to crack the same problem they were all facing: the growing challenges of launching a company.

We host a lot of events. But more than that, Startup Grind is a community. We bring like-minded yet diverse individuals together to connect, learn, teach, help, build, and belong.

We were founded in Silicon Valley, but our chapters have roots in 600 cities across 125 countries (and counting!)

Our mission：

To give startups everywhere the education and opportunities they need to build, grow, and scale their companies.

Our values：

We believe in making friends, not contacts. We believe in giving first, not taking. We believe in helping others before helping yourself.
