Startup Macedonia (SM) acts as the voice for startups in the ecosystem of North Macedonia, with a mission to inspire innovation, development, and networking between startups and local stakeholders to build a more solid economy based on added-value products. Since its inception in 2016, SM has directly collaborated with over 200 startups and 50+ service providers available on our Ecosystem Platform. Additionally, we have engaged with more than 100 international mentors through our Mentoring Platform, providing valuable guidance and expertise.

Our platform is a comprehensive resource for startups, offering access to various service providers, including legal, financial, marketing, and technological services. By facilitating connections and collaboration, we ensure startups receive the support they need to thrive. The Mentoring Platform connects startups with experienced international mentors who offer strategic advice, industry insights, and networking opportunities. This mentorship is crucial for navigating the challenges of early-stage development and scaling up. We are dedicated to fostering entrepreneurial learning in high schools and universities. Through workshops, seminars, and hands-on projects, we aim to build a strong funnel of future entrepreneurs and support startups throughout the growth cycle, from idea conception to scaling.

Over the past two years, SM has strengthened its collaboration with corporates and investors. These partnerships are designed to provide startups with the necessary capital, market access, and strategic alliances to scale their operations. SM gives startups a voice to advocate for regulatory and policy changes to the Government. We aim to create a supportive environment for startups, transforming North Macedonia into a leading Startup Hub in the Western Balkan Region. We are committed to driving innovation through research and development. We aim to create cutting-edge solutions that address global challenges by partnering with academic institutions and education centers. Building on our success, we plan to expand our network to include more international stakeholders, creating a global support system for Macedonian startups and next entrepreneurs. Sustainability is at the core of our mission. We encourage startups to adopt sustainable practices and develop products and services to contribute to a greener future. We strive to create an inclusive startup ecosystem that supports diverse entrepreneurs, including women, minorities, and underrepresented groups, ensuring equal opportunities for all.
