COLLABORATION DRIVES INNOVATION

We value the commitment and support of corporate partners, government agencies, philanthropy and individual donors. Your investment in our mission unlocks the full potential of entrepreneurship to transform our treasured communities.

Our partnerships strategically align across four categories:

Capacity building

Strengthening the region’s vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem

Access

Building equitable access to services, connections and capital

Innovation

Bringing new ideas to scale within the marketplace and the ecosystem

Collaboration

Embracing partnership to achieve equitable economic opportunity

Partnerships fund our Future

Our work is resourced through a diversified funding model which includes charitable giving, public investment and financial returns. JumpStart and ecosystem partners leverage funding from the Ohio Third Frontier by matching each dollar with self-sustained funding. This is why partner contributions and collaborations are critical to achieving our mission.

While our collective accomplishments are many, there is still much more work to do. Economic impact is amplified through a unique blend of public resources and private investment. If you share our vision in the power of entrepreneurship to transform and enrich our region, we invite you to reach out and explore what your contribution can do.
