Does the startup want to scrape the public profiles which you see when logged out of LinkedIn? If yes, this profile data is of little value because it's probably 5% of the real profile data (mainly just the summary) and often there are no public available at all, many times these profiles are turned off for public virw. Or do they mean the 'public' profile which you see when logged in? If yes, this would be a real case because this is awesome data I would like to scrape and which you could build interesting business cases with.
