Building Atlanta's Startup Community
Our Story
There was no startup scene when David Cummings came to Atlanta in 2002. Ten years later, the serial entrepreneur sold his marketing automation firm, Pardot, and purchased what is now the Atlanta Tech Village, with the sole purpose of supporting startups.
Today, the Atlanta Tech Village is a community of innovation powered by the 3rd largest tech space in the U.S. and deep connections to Atlanta’s business and investment community. Together, we have created over 15,000 jobs and aim to fuel Atlanta's rise to a top-five tech-startup center in the U.S.
With unmatched mentorship and working space, The Village supports and inspires entrepreneurs to achieve success through a community that promotes faster connections between talent, ideas and capital.
A Village Built for Founders
When David Cummings founded ATV, he envisioned a place where professionals could work alongside others solving similar problems.
The goal was never just a workspace. It was to create an environment where knowledge flows freely and introductions happen naturally, giving entrepreneurs the perspective and connections needed to build stronger companies.
That mission hasn't changed. Since its founding, hundreds of startups have launched, raised capital, and expanded their impact from within the Village.
The Next Chapter of Atlanta's Startup Story
A community is only as strong as the people inside it. What started as one founder's vision now lives in the team running the Village and the entrepreneurs building inside it; each writing the next chapter.
