About JumpStart
JumpStart Inc. is a venture development organization that advises, invests in, assists, and accelerates Northeast Ohio's early-stage ideas and companies.
Vision
JumpStart solidifies, celebrates, and continually grows Northeast Ohio's position as a nationally significant center for entrepreneurship and innovation.
Mission
JumpStart accelerates the growth of innovative early stage businesses and ideas into venture ready companies through providing a continuum of resources to entrepreneurs and the community.
Charitable Purpose
It has been demonstrated that existing industries are no longer instrumental in providing growth within the region. The majority of growth nationally comes from small businesses. JumpStart's targeted assistance to early-stage high potential small businesses will ultimately create new employment opportunities for Northeast Ohio residents, which will alleviate economic distress and reduce the burden on government. The wealth created and jobs that result from our activities will help to revitalize the economy in Northeast Ohio.
JumpStart is organized and operated exclusively for charitable and educational purposes, including combating community deterioration and lessening the burden of government in the Northeast Ohio area. Read more about our charitable purpose.
