Startup Bucks

About

Startup Bucks is an organization created by and for entrepreneurs to support new and existing startups to drive economic and cultural growth in and beyond Bucks County.

We do this through programs like Founder’s 30(sm), an online forum with about 40 or so attendees helping startup founders every Wednesday from 9-10am ET.

Bucks Built Startup Fund

The Bucks Built Startup Fund administers $25,000 investments and provides support to promising early-stage startups.

Weekly Startup Event: Founder’s 30

Founder’s 30 (F30) Bucks County is a weekly forum for entrepreneurs and those who support them. Each week, startups present for 6 minutes, and then the audience pitches in to help them out with advice and suggestions. All are welcome to attend, and entrepreneurs are encouraged to apply to present.

We’re bolstering the startup ecosystem in Bucks County

Bucks County, Pennsylvania, with a population 630,000+ and proximity to Philadelphia and New York City, is a locale that attracts entrepreneurs, investors, and startup talent to live, work, and play.

Startup Bucks, a 501(c)3 organization founded in 2019, exists to help innovative companies start, grow, and scale in and beyond Bucks. We do this by supporting founders and connecting the startup ecosystem across the County.

Our work is focused in three areas:

  1. Community - events and forums for connection and communication
  2. Resources - programs, guidance, and insights for founders
  3. Capital - connecting to and providing sources of venture funding

We take pride in running our programs to be culturally inclusive and expansive. We make a conscious effort in our daily activities to reach out beyond our networks to engage entrepreneurs, mentors, and supporters of all backgrounds, ages, and experience.

That’s okay because our accelerator makes an initial investment, then gives you the sales, marketing, development, and other tools to position yourself with early stage investors to raise additional capital. As you progress, we connect you with our network of angel investors and other capital sources.

StartUpNV’s mission is to educate individuals on what it takes to be a good angel investor and make smart, successful investments.

We Assist You To Reach Agreed Milestones. Whether you receive investment from us or not, we provide mentoring to help you raise funds easily. Our primary focus is on investing in start-ups at the Pre-Seed, Seed, and Pre-Series A stages. However, we believe that providing support and guidance to our portfolio companies is just as important as providing funding. Our team is committed to helping you at every stage of your journey - from reaching the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) stage to defining your target market, creating an effective marketing strategy (online and offline), and raising subsequent rounds of funding, among other things.
