Construyendo un ecosistema para el emprendimiento en Arkansas

Startup Junkie es una coalición de entidades, marcas y programas que trabajan con una misma misión: empoderar a emprendedores, innovadores y propietarios de pequeñas empresas, tanto consolidados como emergentes, e iluminar su camino hacia el éxito. Startup Junkie Consulting comenzó en 2008 y se constituyó formalmente como LLC en 2011, ofreciendo consultoría gratuita a emprendedores. Para ampliar el alcance, el impacto y la profundidad de este trabajo, en 2015 se creó la Fundación Startup Junkie como una organización sin fines de lucro 501(c)(3).

Desde sus inicios, Startup Junkie ha funcionado como una startup: un equipo multidisciplinario de profesionales versátiles con una clara vocación de acción, que trabajan para eliminar barreras y hacer que el emprendimiento sea accesible para todos. Juntas, ambas organizaciones han prestado servicios a miles de clientes en la región, el estado y el mundo.
