Draper Startup House Ventures

Draper Startup House is a global entrepreneurial ecosystem dedicated to supporting founders through community, investment, and education. Originally founded in 2018 as Tribe Theory in Singapore, the platform rebranded in 2019 under the Draper network, gaining access to the vast resources of Tim Draper’s global venture ecosystem. Draper Startup House combines co-living and co-working spaces with startup incubation programs, offering entrepreneurs mentorship, access to venture funding, and collaborative environments. With over 25 locations spanning across continents—from New York and Singapore to Buenos Aires and Bangalore—Draper Startup House aims to foster innovation and entrepreneurship worldwide. Their ambitious goal is to expand to 100 locations by 2030 and support one million entrepreneurs. Each location provides networking opportunities, workshops, and events, where founders, investors, and mentors can connect and grow ideas. The platform’s digital offerings, including online events and an investor network, ensure that founders can receive support regardless of location. Draper Startup House Ventures, the investment arm, focuses on pre-seed, innovation-driven startups. They offer up to $150,000 in funding, with additional access to the Draper Venture Network’s 24 global funds and a pool of angel investors and venture partners. The fund prioritizes scalable companies with global ambitions, providing startups with the resources needed to grow beyond geographical boundaries. Founders benefit not only from financial backing but also from mentorship and introductions to relevant stakeholders across the global startup ecosystem.
