    Startup Grind is the world’s largest community of startups, founders, innovators, and creators. Changing the world one startup at a time. Startup Grind was founded in 2010 when Derek Andersen got some friends and fellow entrepreneurs together to crack the same problem they were all facing: the growing challenges of launching a company. What became clear was these obstacles were extensive and stretched far beyond their group. Their gatherings soon spurred a local startup movement that attracted founders and experts from every industry, all coming together to share their advice and inspirations for early entrepreneurs. Eventually, vibrant Startup Grind communities (“chapters”) began developing in Los Angeles, Tel Aviv, London, New York, Beijing, and many more. Our community proves that entrepreneurs are in fact, stronger together.
