SEED SPOT believes that catalyzing diverse impact-driven entrepreneurs of all ages is the key to solving society’s most pressing challenges.
To unleash the innovation of entrepreneurs nationwide, we're training Community Organizers to nurture their local impact economies by running nationally-recognized programs. Equipped with turn-key curriculum, logistics support, and ongoing help from our team, Community Organizers cultivate the visions of entrepreneurs creating a better world.
But we need your help. We’re calling all champions of change to help us inspire entrepreneurs who dare to #dreamBIG.
"Rationally understand that no idea or business is perfect, but the key is collaboration with others. Listen to advice and constantly improve upon your original idea. Know when to appreciate success, but never stop growing your idea’s potential!"
