About Resource
The Resource initiative supports locally-led Entrepreneur Support Organizations (ESOs) with capacity-building support, capital, and networks, enhancing their value proposition and effectiveness to accelerate early-stage startups and founders in their local communities.
Significant disparities persist in the US, with less than 3% of venture capital going to founders of overlooked backgrounds. Since its inception, the Resource initiative has made a significant impact, empowering 23 locally-led ESOs, raising over USD 23M in funding, and supporting over 3,500 entrepreneurs. Your support could help us make an even greater impact.
The initiative continues to strengthen entrepreneurial infrastructure for early-stage founders by running “accelerators-for-accelerators” and building a network of collaboration among these ecosystem leaders.
