Connections are your network on StartupCorners. You find them all in one place, where you can message and export them.
Send a request
- Find the startup, investor, mentor or person, in a directory or on their page.
- Choose Connect.
The button turns into Pending until they answer. Changed your mind? Choose Withdraw.
Answer a request
When someone asks to connect, their profile shows Accept and Decline. You also find every request under Requests in Connections.
Once you are connected
The button shows Connected. For a person, Message opens a chat with them. For a company, owners and admins can choose Disconnect and confirm; you can connect again later.
See Manage your connections and requests for everything in one place.
