Startups of the World

A public map of startups worldwide (anyone can add theirs)

What it does

Explore startups worldwide on an interactive, public map. Anyone can add their startup for free — no account required — and it appears as a pin within minutes. Pins are color-coded by industry, making it easy to spot clusters (fintech in London, deeptech in Berlin, AI across Southeast Asia). It’s map-first, not search-first. Would love feedback on the submission flow, signal vs noise as it scales, and what would make you return.
