AWS Startups

Startups in the public sector focus their technology and business innovation on federal/central and local/municipal governments, primary and secondary education, nonprofits, and non-governmental organizations. They empower public sector entities with technology that can improve public-private engagement. AWS has worked with startups to develop next-generation technology for law enforcement, fire departments, and other first responders; and assists startups with critical programs, such as the Small Business Innovation Research program and the Small Business Technology Transfer program.
