Launch is a new and rapidly growing group of entrepreneurs in Seattle that is changing the way people start their own businesses. Launching a startup, either your own or by helping others with theirs, can be a daunting task. Launch House focuses on what’s important: connecting with like-minded people, finding the right team to help take a project from idea to reality and building your community around you.
The career -minded among us know that having an angel investor or venture capitalist can offer a great deal of freedom and flexibility in how best to structure your business. not everyone has this option, however, or is willing to part with the money a VC bundle would provide. Launch House is made up of people who have been there and gone through the process themselves. And they’re sharing their lessons learned.
Launch provides key resources for new entrepreneurs: workshops, classes and other events designed to support new entrepreneurs both before and after they launch their businesses. These resources are free for all members, but also available to the general public at reasonable rates for workshops or classes.

In addition to these resources, Launch House is home to a vibrant community of new entrepreneurs based on a few key values.
Connections: the ability to make meaningful contacts with like-minded people and be part of something bigger than yourself.
Purpose: knowing what your business will stand for and who you’re working for (your customers, the community, future generations) those values set the tone for the way launch house works.
Members meet each other at regular events, including regular workdays and workshops. these events are not just fun gatherings – they’re also a way to connect with others as you go through your business journey, and be part of Launch House’s growing community.
The House vision is to build a community of entrepreneurs who are:
Challengers: people who live by their values, embrace personal responsibility and hard-work in coming up with fresh ideas and solutions; (and) who will make a positive impact on the world.
