Seattle's iconic SURF Incubator extends its pioneering start-up vision outside of the United States

SEATTLE, Aug. 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- SURF Incubator, LLC, has partnered with private investment firm Malidan Capital to expand its operations to Canada with additional plans to open offices in Europe and Asia within the next five years.

SURF is a curated community with a dynamic culture that encourages entrepreneurs to focus on executing their business ideas. SURF is a catalyst that fosters local entrepreneurs with innovative start-ups that provide local solutions to common challenges.

"Our vision always has been to support local innovators who want to produce solutions that can solve immediate challenges within their communities. Our partnership with Malidan Capital will offer much greater value than just capital. It will enable us to strengthen and diversify the overall support programs we offer to our SURF community entrepreneurs on a much larger scale," comments Seaton Gras, founder and CEO of SURF Incubator.

For nearly a decade, SURF has provided incubation, mentorship and open community co-working spaces specifically focused on providing the necessary facilities, education and professional services support to empower early-stage companies to successfully grow.

"It's difficult for entrepreneurs and younger companies in communities outside of larger cities to get the necessary funding and support to give their ideas the best chance of success. SURF has the unique vision of being an economic support center for local innovators solving local problems in any area where it expands. We are excited to join them in this vision," comments Sherry Calvert, Managing Partner of Malidan Capital Group.

Malidan Capital will play an integral role in providing expanded support, education, training and other strategic relationships to members of the SURF community, including funding for seed, early-stage and start-up rounds through its own private investment fund and other private capital networks.
