Startup Investing
Why invest with startUpNV
With no state income tax and lower barriers to entry than almost anywhere in the US, Nevada has seen an exponentially increasing amount of investment in the state. The two great cities of Las Vegas and Reno have had immense success in gaming and tourism, however, diversifying our economy and growing a robust startup ecosystem is important to making this community resilient. In order to do that, we have to support entrepreneurs and startups right here.
Angels say there aren’t any deals in Nevada. Entrepreneurs say there aren’t any investors writing checks. Neither are true — there are plenty of both in Nevada, and we’re here to bridge that gap as the only startup incubator and accelerator in the entire state. StartupNV organizes startups into an efficient marketplace where the best deals rise to the top and are made available to those angels with foresight and a strategy for picking winners.
Nevada founders shouldn’t have to leave the state to raise capital when we have the wealth, knowledge, and resources within our own ecosystem. Angel Investors like you help us grow this ecosystem, and we help you make it a seamless and rewarding process.
