The Village Grows to 1,000 Members Strong

March 10, 2016

The Village reached a huge milestone yesterday. We are officially 1,000 current members strong! This speaks volumes to the power of community for entrepreneurs and the electric atmosphere of the Atlanta startup community. We are on fire!When we first began the Village story, we had no idea we would end up here. As our founder David Cummings said, "Ever since buying the building a little over three years ago, I never thought we’d have 1,000 members. 700 or 800 sure, but 1,000 — that seemed crazy."And yet here we are in three short years: 285 startups, over 1,ooo entrepreneurs, over $250M in funding raised, and graduates like Bitpay, YikYak,insightpool, and Salesloft. At Atlanta Tech Village, we are startups' biggest fans. They are the hero of our story and we can't wait to see where we go from here together.#wearefamily
