Why this page exists — and how to read it

Startups don't grow in a vacuum — this is the support layer around them: who funds, who accelerates, who incubates, and which research institutions anchor each region. Use it to see whether the support exists where the founding activity is.

Investors
See who else invests where you do — and toggle to the startup layer to find states with founders but little local capital.
Founders & operators
Shortlist investors and incubators by focus, stage and state — start with who is actually active near you.
Corporate & R&D
Ranked institutions are partnership and hiring targets — check who leads near your sites.
Policy & TTO
Compare the ecosystem map with the startup layer to spot states where the support layer lags founding activity.
