Unique Communities, Unique Partnerships
As a nonprofit, strategic partnerships are key to our success.
We partner with organizations that believe in our mission to grow small businesses, build thriving communities and create a diverse regional economy. Each partnership is unique and built to best serve a small business, a community or the region.
From bringing together a group of funders to helping a small business access capital to collaborating on regional economic growth strategies, we understand that we’re stronger together.
“NBC is a strong supporter of small business in the region and a long-time partner of the Entrepreneur Fund. EF is unique in their ability to advance entrepreneurship and elevate business growth in our communities, as a philanthropic organization and referral partner their impact is exceptional.”
– Steven Burgess | President & CEO, National Bank of Commerce
With NBC’s help, the Entrepreneur Fund successfully closed the ENVEST Capital Campaign, turning $2.5 million into $25 million for regional entrepreneurs by maximizing every ENVESTMENT. NBC also continues to be a strong referral partner and many EF clients “graduate” to become NBC clients.
