Startup Grind, the largest independent startup community in the world, actively educates, inspires and connects 800,000 founders in over 200 cities. The innovative company nurtures startup ecosystems in those cities through monthly events, media and partnerships.“Our partnership gives Startup Grind members access to inspired spaces to collaborate in while providing our guests opportunities to connect with creative thinkers and local entrepreneurs when staying at AC Hotels by Marriott,” says Dan Vinh, Vice President Marketing, AC Hotels, Marriott International. “AC Hotels is a new breed of lifestyle hotels created for the next-generation entrepreneurial traveler, collaborating with a pioneering brand like Startup Grind is yet another way of supporting successful local founders, innovators, educators and investors who share our passion for innovation on a global scale.”

Complimentary Wi-Fi, a brand standard for hotel guests and locals alike, enables Startup Grind members to work, connect, explore and socialize. When a private meeting area is needed, members can book a variety of spaces, which range in size and are equipped with the latest audio-visual technology, with preferred pricing. To facilitate frictionless service, “Kallpods” – wireless service buttons – are provided in the public and meetings spaces to enable guests to immediately engage with a staff member.

Each hotel is designed for those creative, well-traveled, entrepreneurial spirits who are constantly on the go and who appreciate the oasis of a well-designed hotel that allows them to welcome moments of tranquility, be present and connect with others. Each AC Hotel is designed to reflect the uniqueness and character of its urban location.
