The Entrepreneurs' Organization of Cincinnati is launching its own accelerator program.
The accelerator is aimed at helping startups grow their revenues to more than $1 million annually, a requirement for EO membership. The program will tap into the EO's network of entrepreneurs to provide participants mentors and offer learning events.
“Through our programming and resources EO aims to support and celebrate entrepreneurs in every stage of their journey,” EO Cincinnati president Jim Salters said in a statement. “We are especially looking forward to bringing the accelerator program to Cincinnati, as it has helped hundreds of businesses overcome common growth hurtles.”
Those interested in applying for the accelerator's spring 2021 class can learn more on the EO's website.
The announcement of the accelerator's launch coincided with World Entrepreneur Day.
To celebrate the day, the EO is also soliciting businesses owners to share their "startup stories" via the organization's Facebook page. Those stories will be highlighted throughout the year, the release states.
The Entrepreneurs' Organization is a global nonprofit aimed at helping entrepreneurs. Its local chapter has roughly 60 members.
