help accelerate the success of early stage startups by providing key
resources when they need it the most:
- Software. Receive fast and easy access to current
full-featured Microsoft development tools, platform technologies, and
production licenses of server products for immediate use in developing
and bringing to market innovative and interoperable solutions. There is
no upfront cost to enroll.

the world — incubators, investors, advisors, government agencies and
hosters — that are equally involved and vested in software-fueled
innovation and entrepreneurship who will provide a wide range of
support resources.
- Visibility. Achieve global visibility to an audience of potential investors, clients and partners
As

ecosystem of peers, partners and support resources around the globe,
helping you grow and succeed. Microsoft BizSpark is the quickest way to
