For immediate release: Aug. 17, 2023
From organizations that provide Tennessee focused technical assistance and mentoring, to coworking spaces, and investment firms — Startup Tennessee will help connect founders with the support they need.
“We saw the need for a platform that could act as a one-stop shop for people who want to engage with Tennessee’s entrepreneurial ecosystem,” CEO Lindsey Cox said. “One of LaunchTN’s focus areas is fostering connectivity among entrepreneurs and resource providers, so Startup Tennessee is an exciting way for us to provide a robust, reliable snapshot of those resources in Tennessee.”
The platform, called Startup Tennessee, provides information about organizations, resources, programs and events from entrepreneurial support organizations and companies.
Aggregating resources for startup founders in all the state’s 95 counties, Startup Tennessee was created in collaboration with tech company EcoMap, using AI to keep the platform up-to-date. Startup Tennessee is for current, future, and aspiring members of the Tennessee entrepreneurial ecosystem. There is an intentional focus on businesses in the early stages, so most resources listed (excluding investment capital) are free or low-cost.
Startup Tennessee can be found by going to LaunchTN’s redesigned website.
