The Capital Factory Story: Quit Your Job And Become An Entrepreneur

This is the story of how Capital Factory became the hub of the startup scene in Austin, told by the early visionaries, partners, founders, mentors and members who made it all happen.

Capital Factory is the center of gravity for entrepreneurs in Austin. In 2015, more than 50,000 entrepreneurs, programmers and designers gathered day and night for meetups, classes and co-working. We meet the best entrepreneurs in Austin and introduce them to their first investors, employees and customers. We have a series of matching funds so that if a startup can convince 2 of our mentors to invest personally it can unlock hundreds of thousands of dollars in additional automatic funding.
