A sneak peek heads up of the Startup Grind phenomena in South Africa:
Startup Grind is a global startup community designed to educate, inspire, and connect entrepreneurs and is powered by Google for Entrepreneurs. Chapter Directors host monthly events in their cities that feature successful local founders, innovators, educators and investors who share personal stories and lessons learned on the road to building great companies.

Startup Grind is a connected online and offline network of vibrant startup communities to help fuel innovation, economic growth and prosperity at the local level. While Startup Grind was founded in Palo Alto, California, an extended network of more than 300 Startup Grind chapters are located around the world.
Startup Grind Port Elizabeth believes in making friends, not contacts; giving, not taking and helping others before helping yourself. Meet a group that is truly passionate about helping founders, entrepreneurs and startups succeed. Join Startup Grind Port Elizabeth as we make the startup journey less lonely, more connected and more memorable.
