Launchpad LA

edit

Launchpad LA was founded as a mentorship organization in 2009 by Mark Suster with the goal of helping young talented startup entrepreneurs build relationships, get funded, and grow while remaining in Southern California. The idea came from Mark’s frustration with seeing too many companies receive funding from Northern California VCs and then choosing to relocate their teams. The Launchpad LA initiative is a true collaboration among the area’s best VCs who have a shared interest in seeing a robust tech community continue to grow and thrive in Los Angeles.
