What every ecosystem needs is a connector that builds this vast network of open doors for more and more people to access different people and resources they were never able to before. This week, episode 9 of Entrepreneurship on the RISE Podcast is about building networking loops!
RISE Collaborative is striving to create a more inclusive and vibrant regional economy in which makers, entrepreneurs, innovators, and service providers interact organically and collaboratively. Our mission is to enhance equity and access to entrepreneurship and innovation for people who have been under served based on geographic location (anyone who lives, works, or owns a business in Southern Virginia) and for people who have been underrepresented based on race, gender, religion, or other factors. We are doing this by creating regionally-relevant incubator services and accelerator programs that can be accessed at many locations across our service area.
In this episode of Entrepreneurship on the RISE Podcast, Jacob and Lauren, joined by their guest Baylie Evans are sharing the importance of creating programs that connect people together for the greater good and how thinking outside of the box can drive recruitment numbers for programs in rural communities. Some of the talking points we go over in this episode include:
Connectivity is key to building a community of entrepreneurial success.
