StartX is a collection of serial entrepreneurs, industry experts, tenured Stanford professors, and well-funded growth-stage startups. We believe that entrepreneurs can achieve more, as a group, than we can as individuals. As a community, our goal is to find creative ways to collaborate, so that each of our companies can have a long-term positive impact on the world. From this, we designed the StartX Community: a community for founders who don't need to give up equity. (NOTE: Students cannot apply directly to StartX. Students should instead apply for the separate Student-in-Residence accelerator.)We take Zero EquityStartX is a 501(c)3 non-profit and takes not equity in our companies. We are supported through grants, donations, and corporate sponsorships, including $8M in grant funding from Stanford University, Stanford Health Care, and Kauffman Foundation.We are Industry and Stage AgnosticStartX founders tackle big problems in every industry, from biotech, medical device, hardware, cleantech, and non-profit to consumer and enterprise IT.
