  • Company Description
    For years, we saw passionate entrepreneurs struggle to find the support they need to grow their businesses—to hire more employees, produce more product, and share their dream with more consumers. Companies were often forced to reach out to friends and family—a long and often awkward process. At the same time, we saw investors that were passionate about these smaller private companies, but didn’t know how to get in touch with the entrepreneurs. We created CircleUp to make this process more efficient.
