Announcing the new Databricks Startup Program

Today we are launching a major update to the Databricks Startup Program: qualifying startups can receive up to $200k in credits across both Databricks and Neon. This represents a new, consolidated program that gives early-stage founders the app backend, data, and AI stack they need to go from idea to product market fit. 

It also includes hands-on guidance to help founders build fast, and go-to-market opportunities for when it comes time to launch.

Apply now at databricks.com/product/startups.

What do startups receive?

• Up to $200k in credits across Databricks and Neon
• Hands-on technical guidance from our team to help you architect and ship fast
• Partner and community access, connecting you to our go-to-market teams and founder communities

How do I qualify for the new program?

This program is purpose-built for early-stage, venture-backed startups. We’re especially looking to support founders who have recently raised institutional funding (pre-seed through Series A) and are building their company on data and AI.

Not sure if you qualify? Apply and we’d be happy to review your application.

Why should startups choose Databricks?

Every startup today needs a database and access to foundation models, and Databricks and Neon can provide both on day one, making it an incredible way to get started.

Once they launch, startups quickly need analytics, data warehousing, AI systems, and enterprise-grade governance. This is where Databricks shines, giving you a single stack to build your entire AI company on.
