Ecosystem Tour 24-09: Mid-Atlantic

In this episode, we sit down with Mark Lawrence, managing partner of Incubate, to explore how he’s reshaping entrepreneurial ecosystems through community-driven economic empowerment. From building innovation hubs at local community colleges to creating spaces where minority entrepreneurs can thrive, Mark shares insights on how to foster broad-based entrepreneurship that impacts underserved communities.

Highlights:

• Insights into the difference between entrepreneurial and innovation ecosystems.
• The role of real estate development in supporting entrepreneurs.
• How anchor institutions and local communities can collaborate to drive growth.

Join us to learn how these strategies are making a real impact in places often overlooked by traditional economic development.

Invite us to your city! Our goal is to visit 24 startup communities, sharing their unique stories and the lessons they offer for ecosystem builders nationwide. Let’s shape a more inclusive future for entrepreneurship together.
