Snowflake for Startups
Open continuously
No deadline — apply whenever you are ready.
Free Snowflake usage on the first contract plus expert support; Snowflake does not publish a USD credit value on the programme page, so the amount is null. Separately, the Snowflake Startup Challenge offers 'up to $1 million in investments from Snowflake' — that is an equity investment, not a grant, and is a separate competition.
Snowflake Inc.
private · supranational
Deadline: Open all year — Register interest on a rolling basis; the separate Startup Challenge runs to an annual timetable.
