Abstract

This is part of a case series. 500 Startups continued its expansion of accelerators and venture capital to cover a global footprint for underserved entrepreneurial markets between 2014 and 2016. As investment returns began to occur, the organization looked to grow and expand beyond Silicon Valley and increase its presence in locations that were underserved by traditional venture capital. The case tells of the activities of McClure and the leadership team as they spread their activities across Asia and the Middle East, and became increasingly active in the venture and accelerator landscape.
