About us

We are a global startup incubator and idea validation platform for young entrepreneurs, with a special focus on those launching products and services in the tech space.  The Founders Hive has a unique approach to helping early-stage entrepreneurs address team creation and investment gap issues.  We are able to engage our international community in a number of ways - both virtually and in person - with the aim of connecting founders with investors and team members to aid the growth of their business. We connect our startups to world-class resources without taking any equity.  We empower entrepreneurs by connecting entrepreneurs, validating ideas, offering co-working space, delivering coding and development training, and consulting on lean startup methodologies.

Our values

Our aim is to empower entrepreneurs and ensure innovative ideas can be turned into viable and profitable businesses by connecting founding teams to the necessary people and resources.

We are an inspiring and engaging global community of entrepreneurs, students, investors, and startup enthusiasts. We look to inspire and support young entrepreneurs with business ideas at any stage of development.
