Hear from founders on Umbrella

For an early-stage startup, funding is extremely limited. Many founders are forced to bootstrap for an inordinate amount of time and sometimes abandon their ideas due to a lack of funding to bring an idea to life, i.e. building an MVP, launching, running operations, and achieving product-market fit. With Umbrella, all of that is about to change. We are excited about this as an early-stage company and have signed up with Umbrella; if you are an early-stage startup, you should too!

What investors under our Umbrella have to say

Amazing!!! This was what came to mind when I first heard about Umbrella. I was excited at the idea that a marketplace will exist where founders and VC's could meet to build and scale ideas. The most interesting part of umbrella for me is the all of the behind-the-scenes work the various experts (lawyers, financial analysts, etc) have to do to ensure that ideas are market ready for investors to consider. Umbrella is indeed an idea whose time has come.
