Omaha based startup house program Year Of The Startup has been included as 1 of 80 winners in the second annual Growth Accelerator Fund Competition.
“This award will allow us to have a runway as we continue our expansion,” said Sebastian Hunt, Founder of Year Of The Startup.
Founded in 2014, Year Of The Startup began with one home in the Omaha Midtown area.
“This year we’ve upgraded to two larger startup houses – one of which is an MVP for nonprofit founders.”

Sebastian continued about the group’s expansion.
“The ultimate plan is to use these proceeds to initiate our Omaha Startup Village plan. We’ll make a small contribution to our friends at Homes 4 Hackers down in KCSV as well, in hopes of promoting continued collaboration and exchange with our friends in Kansas City and across the prairie. #unifytheprairie”
