JoyCorps, Bedrock, and more

Good Morning!

Welcome to this week's edition of Faith Factor’s newsletter, your weekly overview of Christian-related startup and VC news and content.

Startup of the Week: JoyCorps

Co-founded by Mel and Dave Murray, JoyCorps invests in local leaders in Asia working to develop their communities and drive economic growth. Along with bringing in funding, JoyCorps builds a community of support and mentorship around those leaders, to help them be fully equipped to make their communities prosper. Many rural areas in Asia struggle to flourish, due to lack of investments, migration of people and businesses to urban areas, and extreme poverty. JoyCorps aims to reverse that trend. Currently, they work with over eight different community leaders across a variety of industries, including home goods, food, sustainable fashion, and more.
