The Startup America Partnership is:A movement by entrepreneurs, for entrepreneurs - launched January 31, 2011, at the White House to help inspire and celebrate entrepreneurs, their firms and the people that join them.An independent, private-sector entity – leveraging the work of our close partners in the U.S. government, but with the fierce freedom, independence and agility that define American startups themselves.Focused on bringing the private sector together to maximize the success of America's entrepreneurs – and maximize America's competitiveness in an increasingly global world.A tool to showcase a wide range of entrepreneurs, elevating them as innovators and job creators, while celebrating entrepreneurship as a core American value. We aspire to make starting or joining an American startup the most desirable job in the world.Our "customers" are the entrepreneurs themselves. We will take steps to encourage the creation of new startups, however, our principal focus will be on supporting the entrepreneurs who are leading existing firms with high-growth potential (what we call "speedups"). We will do this by assembling commitments from a wide range of companies and organizations to provide assistance to entrepreneurs in the following areas: Expertise, Services, Talent, Customers and Capital.
