Tech Ranch, an Austin-based venture accelerator, and Impact Hub Austin, a coworking space focused on social impact, have announced a partnership to further support entrepreneurs and businesses making an impact in Austin and across the globe. The partnership between Tech Ranch and Impact Hub Austin represents the expansion of the Tech Ranch community in Austin. Through this strategic collaboration, Tech Ranch and Impact Hub will leverage existing programs as well as create new initiatives aimed at providing both Austin-based entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs from Tech Ranch’s global community with an opportunity to connect with more ecosystems, build for scale, explore new markets and solve real social issues both locally and globally.

Our partnership naturally complements our collective strengths. With Austin roots and global reach, Austin-based and global entrepreneurs can leverage Tech Ranch’s and Impact Hub Austin’s networks to amplify their impact.”
