JumpStart's Priorities
Early entrepreneurs introduced world-changing ideas resulting in a legendary economic transformation of Northeast Ohio. These individuals were pioneers who built companies from powerful ideas that harnessed the unique talents and resources of the region, which led to Northeast Ohio becoming one of the most important wealth-creating communities in the U.S. Their efforts created the foundation of new wealth and opportunity for our region, leaving a legacy that inspires us today.
Now, in the face of new global competition, we need to rekindle this pioneering spirit to fortify our region's prosperity, establishing a clear path for creating a community that fosters innovation and entrepreneurship. This is consistent with JumpStart's vision to solidify, celebrate and continually grow Northeast Ohio's position as a nationally significant center for entrepreneurship and innovation.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude for the giving spirit of the many partners who have generously assisted us through their commitment, dedication and financial support to achieve our collective vision. JumpStart's model has been recognized by local and national organizations for providing a unique mix of services and value to the community.
Your involvement supports our efforts to commercialize new innovations, spark the creation of new business growth, and create jobs in Northeast Ohio — today and for future generations. We hope you will join us with your commitment to our region's revitalization. We invite you to partner with us in this journey and hope that we may help to support your philanthropic goals.
