I’m currently in the process of applying to Founders Hub and came across the option to enter an “Investor Code” during the application.
I wanted to check—has anyone here received such a code before?
Really appreciate any insights you can share.

Hello,
I applied to Microsoft Founders Hub 7 days ago and never heard back. When I tried loggin in, I had to do the application again. I tried to apply again and I got a message that I cant apply because my application was declined. However, since I never got an email about refusal or reasons for refusal, I am not sure what went wrong.
I was trying to find a way to reach any sort of support regarding Founders Hub, but it pressing contact us always asks me to fill the application form again.
Can anyone help me either contact the right person or any other way to resolve this?
Thank you in advance.

If your Microsoft Founders Hub application was declined without notice and you're unable to reapply, here’s what you can do,
Use the Support Portal Visit Microsoft Partner Support and submit a general support request under “Programs” or “Startups” if available.
Optional: LinkedIn Some applicants have had success contacting Microsoft for Startups team members on LinkedIn.
