Fantastic program with even more amazing people! Learned so much - like all good entrepreneurship it involved plenty of hard work, reliance on partnerships and a strong dose of creative thinking. More good things coming. EBLN 🔗 https://www.ebln.us/ Executive Fellowship 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gdhjZ5Dp #MakeStartups #MSEF #ExecutiveFellowship #EcosystemBuilding #Entrepreneurship #EBLN
One year ago we were honored to receive the first EBLN grant for advancing the field of Entrepreneurship Ecosystem Building. After many months, applications, interviews we launched our Make Startups Executive Fellowship with 17 fellows from 10 states. Here we are six months later celebrating the graduation of our fellows today as they venture back into their communities with a deeper understanding of the field. From policy to marketing strategy and the nuances of WIOA and Economic Development, we are so proud of them all!

Road show and Fall conference season has begun! First stop, #Denver, #Colorado. Speaking at International Economic Development Council on alternative programming for Entrepreners across the #USA via Workforce and Economic Development. As usual I was inspiried and motivated to this meaningful work supporting founders and startups on their entreprenerial journey. Economic mobility and generational wealth creation is available to all, some with more financial and social capital than others. Saw some old friends and made some new ones! Victor W.
