Ed Nusbaum, who helped launch Startup Club and many other great communities, has passed away.

Led by internet entrepreneur Colin Campbell, whose prior successes include Tucows Interactive and Hostopia.com, .Club Domains, LLC was formed for the purpose of becoming the .CLUB gTLD registry.
A decade ago, the company launched Startup.club to support entrepreneurs building businesses around a .CLUB domain name.
Campbell shared a eulogy for Ed Nusbaum, summarized below:
Copyright © 2025 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.Ed Nusbaum’s legacy reminds us that thriving communities aren’t built on flashy platforms or rigid systems, but on genuine connection, generosity, and the courage to start before everything is perfect.
His work with Startup Club showed how empathy, inclusivity, and a focus on shared wins can turn a loose network of individuals into a powerful, supportive community. As we honor his memory, we carry forward the simple but profound lesson he embodied: communities flourish when we show up for one another with consistency, care, and an open heart.
