Over the last ten years we've built compelling programs supporting entrepreneurs at all stages including scholarships and mentorship for underepresented entrepreneurs (Stockton, Newark, New Orleans, Nashville & Memphis), startup conferences and content (TribeCon, Launch Fest, Collision, Ecosystem Summit) and most recently fiscal sponsorship for independent music festivals (Horseshoe Music Festival). Our work has helped startups and small businesses create 9000 jobs, raise $230MM in capital, and grow to 1.15MM sq ft in leases by graduates.
