Microsoft program for entrepreneurs
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Microsoft for Startups, formerly known as Microsoft BizSpark, is a Microsoft program that provides support, Azure credits, and free licenses to selected Microsoft products, which are then also provided to software entrepreneurs and start-ups,[1] providing the benefits and the perks to the selected members of this program for a term of 3 years. Microsoft launched BizSpark One in 2009 as an enhanced service for selected startups.[1] The BizSpark program was discontinued on February 14, 2018[2] and was replaced by the Microsoft for Startups program.[3] In October 2021, a new hub for Founders was added, providing improved oversight of benefits and the startup company profile.
