Startup Database
Collecting information for the database
The database was created through analyzing and comparing publicly available information, obtaining insights from the Belarusian startup ecosystem’s stakeholders and contributors (startups, VC and PE funds, Angels Band, accelerators, support organizations and opinion leaders). Investment rounds are sourced from public disclosures including press releases, news, etc. Credible data sources, such as Crunchbase, Dealroom, TechCrunch, and others were used to provide the most accurate overview of information.
In the database we understand Belarusian startup as a startup, founded de facto or de jure less than 15 years ago 1) in Belarus, 2) with a majority of its team in Belarus or 3) by at least one founder from Belarus, while the project not necessarily positioned as Belarusian.
DISCLAIMER
Startup profiles can be updated by verified startup representatives, so the platform administrators are not responsible for the accuracy of information provided by them.
