Arch Grants

Arch Grants' mission is to fuel economic growth in St. Louis and the region by providing funding and wraparound services to startups that headquarter in St. Louis for at least one year. Every year since 2012, hundreds of early-stage start-up founders participate in Arch Grants' Global Startup Competition to receive $50,000 in non-dilutive grant funding, concierge networking and fundraising support, referrals, discounts and pro-bono professional services, and access to a growing talent recruitment pipeline as a result of Arch Grants' partnerships with universities, non-profits, businesses, and government entities. The new Growth Grants program announced in 2020 provides additional funding to a select group of growing Arch Grants Companies who commit to staying in St. Louis to scale.
