Are you a founder that’s new to the Sacramento area or an entrepreneur in the region that’s just getting started? You may not be aware of it but there are a wide range of organizations, resources, and assets that you can tap into to help you on your entrepreneurial journey. In fact there’s a whole network of people that are willing to help you with your startup.

You may have also seen this Sacramento Startup Ecosystem diagram that maps out the resources available to startups in the region. The diagram maps out educational resources, events and activities to help you connect with other founders and those who can help startups, accelerators, investors, and more. The map can guide you through your startup journey in Sacramento. There’s a lot going on in the diagram — there’s a lot of circles, there’s lines, and various colors and connections between various elements.

Recently, our good friend and partner in the ecosystem, Dan Casas-Murray put together a video guided tour that shows you how you can use the diagram to find investors, co-founders, and get the startup knowledge that will help you launch, grow, and scale in Sacramento. The video also takes a look at what a typical founder’s journey can look like. By the end of the video you’ll have the ability to make full use of the map so you can plug into the entire startup community that’s got your back, right here in Sacramento. Take a look.
