A free visibility & alumni engagement layer for entrepreneur support organizations

The problem we consistently hear from ESOs

After speaking with 50+ program directors and managers, the same issues come up:

• Great programs struggle with visibility before cohorts
• Alumni engagement drops off after graduation
• Impact data exists, but is scattered and under-leveraged
• ESOs operate in silos, even within the same state
• Program teams don’t have time to maintain yet another system

Founder-Nav is designed to sit above existing tools — not replace them.

What Founder-Nav is (and is not)

Founder-Nav is:

• A free, public-facing directory of hubs, programs, and alumni
• A lightweight alumni engagement layer
• A shared infrastructure for ecosystem visibility

Founder-Nav is not:

• A replacement for CRMs or internal systems
• A paid ESO product
• Another static directory that goes stale
