When Communities Align, Entrepreneurs Thrive
A strong entrepreneurial ecosystem requires shared understanding, alignment, and common goals. CORE partners with community leaders, elected officials, government staff, and economic development organizations to help everyone better understand what entrepreneurs need—and how we can work together to support them.
Helping the Community Understand Entrepreneur Needs
CORE provides clear, accessible education about what founders need across industries and stages, including:
- Customer discovery and validation
- Capital needs at each stage
_ Mentorship and advisory support
- Pilot customers and early revenue pathways
- The different requirements of tech vs. non-tech entrepreneurs
Collaboration ensures entrepreneurs experience a connected, supportive environment—not a maze of disconnected programs

Advocating for Common Metrics
To improve ecosystem-wide effectiveness, CORE champions standardized metrics for program outcomes, capital deployment, and founder success. Shared metrics make it easier for partners to:
- Track investments and outputs
- Measure impact and ROI
- Evaluate what’s working
- Align programs around common goals
This creates accountability, transparency, and stronger resource allocation.
