In most instances, startup founders will embark on building their company from the ground up with a bare-bones budget and a dream. To ensure success, these founders will need to develop core business processes that meet the computing needs of today’s modern workplace without crashing the budget. It is to this end that Microsoft launched the Startups Founders Hub. This program is designed to offer technology, guidance, and support to startups that have an idea that could provide solutions to some of the problems businesses face today. Qualified founders get up to $150,000 in credit on Microsoft’s flexible, enterprise-grade cloud computing platform – Azure. Microsoft’s motivation for starting this program is likely the recognition that startups play an integral role in a thriving business ecosystem. "Our ambition is to make the global startup ecosystem more representative of the world at large regardless of background, location, progress or passion," said Jeff Ma, vice president, Microsoft for Startups.
