Matches bootstrapped govtech founders with procurement insiders for warm intros.
Bootstrapped founders experience brutally slow sales cycles when selling govtech to enterprise government teams due to endless procurement red tape and compliance hurdles.
GovLinkr is a vetted network connecting founders to gov buyers/insiders, skipping cold outreach. Founders profile their solutions, get matched to contacts, and request warm intros via platform. It builds relationships to bypass procurement delays.
