ABOUT
Supporting innovation on the Eastside
Founding a company is a big decision and a big challenge. Startup 425 is designed to help you learn about starting a business on the Eastside and providing resources and information to support you in your entrepreneurial journey. Whether you plan to build a business from home, a retail shop, or a startup, we’re here to help.
We are a collaborative initiative by the cities of Bellevue, Kirkland, Issaquah, Redmond, and Renton serving founders and entrepreneurs in those communities.
