2020 Southeast Capital Landscape

This year, the #BuildInSE Alliance and Embarc Collective have collectively revisited and refreshed the database to reflect the growth in the ecosystem. It remains our intention to maintain this resource to help connect local startups with funding opportunities across the region we call home.*

This year has not been the one that any of us would have expected. With the many challenges that 2020 has presented to our community, change is inevitable. However, within challenge and change therein always lies the silver lining of opportunity. We look forward to championing startups across the Southeast as they weather the storm, pivot best-laid plans, and find gaps to continue to #BuildInSE. 

Build In SE and Embarc Collective present the updated 2020 Southeast Capital Landscape. Here’s what we found:
