Our strategy centers on building a robust feeder pipeline for entrepreneurship support organizations (ESOs), allowing their program graduates to access comprehensive post-program support. Through our free business hub (free for ESOs and Businesses), we offer a wide array of resources, including expert business advisors from diverse sectors and disciplines, technical assistance, grant opportunities, specialized courses, and legal support. This holistic approach ensures that entrepreneurs are not only venture capital-ready but also well-equipped to scale their businesses long after completing their initial ESO programs. By seamlessly integrating these resources, PureVC bridges the gap between early-stage acceleration and long-term business success, enhancing the value of ESO investments.
Join Our HubOur Approach
We facilitate communication and impact metric alignment with Economic Development Districts (EDDs) and Entrepreneurship Support Organizations (ESOs) to ensure businesses across Michigan receive prioritized and equitable business education. Through our business hub, ESOs onboard and offboard their program participants, allowing us to collect data and impact reports up to 12, 24, and 36 months after program completion. This tracking helps assess long-term business performance and outcomes.
Businesses seeking capital and program support from PureVC must first complete an ESO program affiliated with our hub. After working with PureVC, we prepare these promising businesses to qualify for and secure venture capital investment within Michigan, driving local economic growth and entrepreneurial success.
