Business Assistance
We provide direct business assistance to help entrepreneurs address key business challenges and achieve milestones of rapid growth. These milestones can include commercializing a technology, generating sales, identifying strategic partners, entering into a pilot trial, and raising risk capital.
Our experienced Entrepreneurs-in-Residence (EIRs), who collectively have hundreds of years of entrepreneurial experience across a variety of industries, work one-on-one with entrepreneurs. Once key business milestones are set, our EIRs work with entrepreneurs on an ongoing, regular basis—often acting as an added resource or even a member of their team—to make steady progress. The ultimate goal of this assistance is often to guide an entrepreneur to funding that supports the next stages of company growth. If it leads to an investment from us, assistance from an EIR intensifies.
