A Proven Path to Small Business Growth in California

At ESO Ventures, we help cities and institutions accelerate their economic development goals by delivering a complete, ready-to-deploy Entrepreneurial Infrastructure Stack, a proven system to grow local businesses without building from scratch.

At the heart of this stack is ESO Next, a one-year incubator service that combines expert-led business education, up to $100K in accessible capital per entrepreneur, and localized support to turn talent into thriving businesses.

ESO In Your City

We’ve partnered with municipalities, community colleges, and financial institutions to support 600+ entrepreneurs and deploy over $7M in capital; all while helping communities activate real, measurable impact for their small businesses.

If you’re looking for a scalable way to build up your local small business ecosystem, we’d love to connect.
