Startup Runway Opens Applications for Pitch Competition + Mentoring Program
Startup Runway has opened applications for its 2024 Spring Showcase!
Last year, Startup Runway celebrated a record 14 winners across 43 Finalists and 6 Showcases. The bar is set and the team is ready to go bigger in 2024.
Underrepresented founders can apply to pitch for three $10,000 grants and make valuable connections with VCs and angel investors who can fuel their journey. This is a great opportunity for founders who have raised less than $250K to shine without financial barriers.

The goal is to start a new cohort every quarter selecting twenty companies to participate and pair these founders with a dedicated mentor. Want to mentor an outstanding founder and make a difference? Sign up here!
