Vulcan Hammer Grant
As a part of Vulcan Startup Foundry’s mission, we distribute grants directly to approved participants through the Vulcan Hammer Grant. We will work closely with Hammer Grant recipients on all aspects of funding for their project development and launch, including the use of funds.
Seed Funding
Initial funding for startups represents high-risk money from the investor’s perspective, and correspondingly, the most critical funding stage from the startup perspective. Consequently, this can be the most difficult funding to secure for any new startup. Vulcan recognizes that even a great concept and presentation may not be enough for under-served entrepreneurs to secure seed funding from private investors. The Hammer Grant allows us to distribute grants directly to approved participants to provide funding for pre-investor early operating expenses.
Anvil Program participants who are interested in the Hammer Grant
may submit a separate application to determine their eligibility.
