While we offer resources and guidance, your success depends on your commitment. Entrepreneurs who actively engage, set clear goals, and put in the necessary work will gain the most from our services. The more effort you invest, the greater the impact our support will have.

Our service area spans a region as large as Ohio, and we are part of the Oregon Innovation Council (Oregon InC), a public-private partnership supporting innovators from idea to market. Through partnerships across Eastern Oregon and beyond, we provide direct access to statewide resources. Our hands-on, collaborative approach allows us to co-create tailored resource packages aligned with your unique business goals.
