About DEMO and BizSpark

Three years ago, Microsoft kicked off the BizSpark program to support early-stage tech startups worldwide. In that time, Microsoft BizSpark has become a rich program of incredible entrepreneurs and a global network of partners and advisors.

Today, Microsoft provides valuable assistance to more than 45,000 startups worldwide. BizSpark startups range from traditional VC-funded startups, to garage-style startups with limited resources, to the entrepreneurial small business person growing their business through technology. From the outset, BizSpark has offered startups access to Microsoft tools, software and licenses at no cost.

Microsoft BizSpark is proud to support DEMO.
