NYC Seed funds seed-stage technology entrepreneurs in New York City. We help driven, small teams that want to express their original ideas through software and web-oriented technologies to move from an idea to a product. Through the combined efforts of New York City’s most innovative organizations, NYC Seed provides funding, mentoring and support to create the next generation of companies in New York City.
NYC Seed is a partnership between ITAC (www.itac.org), Partnership for New York City Fund (fund.pfnyc.org), The New York State Foundation for Science, Technology and Innovation (www.nystar.state.ny.us)and Polytechnic Institute of NYU (www.poly.edu), which allows it to provide more than just funding. Funded companies will join an extensive media and technology community. NYC Seed provides guidance from notable entrepreneurs, technologists and venture capitalists. We also connect companies to potential initial customers and when ready, we help companies move to their next stage of development.
NYC Seed also runs SeedStart, a startup focused accelerator program which combines corporate, VC, city and entrepreneurial partners to grow innovative companies in New York City.
