We were psyched to have Arnoldo move to St. Louis from Costa Rica for the grant (& would love to see many more international entrepreneurs apply -- we helped Arnoldo w/ his visa and will help future entrepreneurs requiring visas).
It's not just the grant funding. It's also a bundle of services and visibility for more contacts to build your business and more funding.
I highly recommend arch grants. who couldn't use no strings attached money. it could really get your startup off the ground.
The Arch Grants competition is now open and closes on Jan 1.
What kind of startup do YOU have, readers?
My startup won the grant during the 2012 cycle. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
$50,000 and no equity. I've never seen anyone else host a competition like this.
