Our Heart for Ecosystems

ECatalyst believes that there are heroes in every community, no matter how disadvantaged, with great ideas to start transformative businesses. However, few step forward to start because they do not know how, do not have the resources they need, or are not sure anyone would support them if they tried. But what if those same entrepreneurs had access to world-class training, had mentors and business leaders eager to find resources for them, and a community of entrepreneurs together with whom they could try, fail, and try again? Then great ideas are worth attempting, and entrepreneurs become heroes.

At ECatalyst, our focus is on helping an area or a community through their entrepreneurs. We believe that entrepreneurs are supported best by local ecosystems which provide more than just knowledge, funding, or incubation programs. An entrepreneurial ecosystem is a network of entrepreneurs, mentors, leaders, and investors that catalyze entrepreneurship in a community. As an ecosystem grows, businesses launch, jobs are created, local problems get solved, the economy expands, and the entire community is transformed. 

 You have questions... we get it!  

We are so excited about ecosystems, and want you to be too.
