Microsoft for Startups Program
The Microsoft for Startups program provides support, free licenses, and Azure credits to software startups and entrepreneurs. Beneficiaries of the program are exposed to numerous perks for three years.
The program was formerly known as Microsoft BizPark. However, the BizPark program was replaced with Microsoft for Startups in 2018. Microsoft for Startups currently operates in more than 140 countries, accelerating the growth of startups that offer innovative solutions.
