Who We Are
HUSTLE Winston-Salem exists to facilitate and promote a more inclusive entrepreneurial ecosystem by working with both entrepreneurs and community stakeholders. We focus on and advocate for those that are most at-risk for systematic exclusion or marginalization in the local innovation economy.
What We Do
FOR ENTREPRENEURS
Entrepreneurial Education: We provide education and training resources to help our target entrepreneurs navigate existing systemic barriers-to-entry into the entrepreneurial ecosystem and promote their sustainable growth.
Community Funding: We create unique non-equity funding vehicles that allow local communities to support and invest in local businesses that are helmed by under-resourced founders.
Affordable Spaces: We partner with local real estate stakeholders to identify and provide accessible and low-cost office and pop-up space for startups and growing businesses.
Media Content: We develop dynamic video, web and social media content that informs, inspires, and motivates entrepreneurs, as well as helps them connect to local resources.
FOR ECOSYSTEMS
Stakeholder Education: We help community leaders and stakeholders grow the innovation economy by teaching them to shape and integrate inclusive culture practices to the entrepreneurial ecosystem, with a goal removing exclusionary barriers which may be inhibiting their economic growth and community growth.
Programming Services: We work with local organizations to develop impactful entrepreneurial programming and events for both inclusive and targeted populations. We also provide program development and managements services to other organizations, allowing them to increase the capacity for diverse and inclusive programming, operations, and marketing.
Content Development: We develop dynamic and inclusive media and digital content that represents, engages and informs a diverse ecosystem.
