In the wake of a new developers portal, Google did a soft-launch of its new program to encourage and help startups grow, called the Startup Launch. The program has already launched in Tel Aviv, Israel, and the it is expanding worldwide today.
The program is basically an incubator, which helps startups with mentorship and even workspace. According to Google, the company is aiming at providing the startups with help, right from getting their work discovered to raising funds. Google has also mentioned that there will be free quote for their premium products as well as early access to technologies the company is working on.
This is not all. The program also gives access to the startup events and another program called the Launch Pads, which lets the startup launch their product in a way the founders would have always wanted to launch.
In a nutshell, Google has packaged everything the company has been offering to the community, right from providing mentorship to office hours to device labs to UI reviews, under this program.
If you are a startup, and would like to apply for this program, you will have to just head to this link, to get yourself signed up. But then, the Startup Launch is launching in places like Brazil next, but we are still not sure about the rate of expansion for this program to other countries.
