Who Should Join

We are reaching out to engage:

Startup Culture

We are building a startup culture in North Texas centered on Fort Worth focusing, first, on the earliest stage of startup formation. That means attracting the attention of the entrepreneurially curious who have the skills and aptitude to create a startup. The ideal startup founder is someone with deep industry experience and a unique startup idea from that industry around which a team can be formed and a startup can be created.

Corporate Innovation

We are helping local businesses become more innovative and competitive worldwide. That means promoting innovation to executives and managers and enabling product managers and employees to become more innovative.
We are inspiring those who are not technical to create new scalable companies or to add scalability to existing companies through, for example, digital transformation.

University/Industry Collaboration

We are facilitating industry and university collaboration in the development of technology and research.
