OUR PROCESS

The Startup Pittsburgh Process

When it comes to serving Pittsburgh startups, we have one goal in mind: Connect businesses with the best professionals possible. Sometimes that means recommending a company inside the Startup Pittsburgh network, and sometimes it means referring business somewhere else. To link the region’s businesses with the greatest number of professionals, we’ve created a list of industry verticals within Startup Pittsburgh. 

Startup Pittsburgh aims to provide a service for everything you need, so you receive 
individualized attention without constant attempts to cross-sell you unnecessary add-ons. 

How it Works

Picture this: Joe is the founder of PGHTECH, and his company has designed a new widget. He needs a patent lawyer, so he comes to Startup Pittsburgh for guidance. Once he’s secured a patent, he realizes he needs help marketing the new product. So he returns to Startup Pittsburgh to connect with a marketer. As he sells more and more widgets, PGHTECH must bring on more employees. This means he needs to offer a better benefits package, and he could also use help managing his accounting. After reaching out to Startup Pittsburgh, he secures a great new benefits package for his team, and he finds an accounting service that meets PGHTECH’s specific requirements. Every time Joe faces a problem in his business, he can turn to Startup Pittsburgh.
