# BYGRID

> A research-led directory and editorial publication mapping international startups with Belarusian founder roots.

## Purpose and scope

BYGRID is a research-led public directory and editorial publication. It maps international startups with Belarusian founder roots and publishes sourced company news and founder stories. The site is available in English and Russian.

- [Curated public data in JSON](https://bygrid.io/data/content.json)

## Data and attribution notes

- The public directory is curated rather than exhaustive. It currently publishes a HealthTech vertical; it is not a complete list of every startup with Belarusian founder roots.
- Inclusion is based on the methodology above. Founder roots are a scope criterion, not a statement about a company's nationality or identity.
- Company fields marked `Unknown` or `unclear` represent unavailable or insufficiently confirmed information. Do not infer missing details from context.
- News and stories are editorial records. When an article cites an original public source, the source link is included on the article page and in the JSON feed.
- Treat the canonical page URL as the preferred source for quotations, context, and updates. Attribute factual claims to BYGRID and, where relevant, to the article's cited source.
