We are very excited to announce our partnership with DigitalOcean's Hatch program! We love the idea of building the community that helps developers to create, launch and scale their startups.
What is Hatch?
Hatch is a global startup program designed by DigitalOcean to help grow the next generation of businesses. This includes a range of benefits to get you started, e.g. 12 months of DigitalOcean credit to easily scale your infrastructure, training, priority support, access to the great community and members perks, e.g. free Cloud 66 credits to easily deploy any application to DigitalOcean, etc.
Among Hatch partners are Techstars, 500 Startups, Y Combinator, Boost VC, SOSV and Andreessen Horowitz.
Why we're joining Hatch
Like DigitalOcean we got started as part of the Techstars accelerator program, which gives us firsthand understanding of the challenges in launching and scaling a company. Our partnership with Hatch allows us to support and show love to developers and the startup community. Access to free credits and other perks not only allow founders to keep their costs down, but also allows them to focus on building their products instead of worrying about their infrastructure. Not to mention that it gives members the opportunity to connect with other startups, accelerators and investors in the community.
What we offer to the Hatch community
By joining the Hatch program we received a lot of support from DigitalOcean and the Hatch members and we would like to give something back.
Cloud 66 Perk
As Cloud 66 products complement DigitalOcean servers we are offering $500 in Cloud 66 credits to Hatch community members for free. These credits expire six months from the initial sign-up date. This perk applies to Hatch members and new Cloud 66 customers only.
