The Economic Mobility Solution for Decision-makers
Communities of all sizes need thriving small-business ecosystems, but the people who power those economies, especially those most marginalized, and underinvested rarely have access to the structured support, capital, and tools they need to succeed in business.
As decision-makers, our
challenges are the same:
Across America, underinvested entrepreneurs are driving new business creation, yet many operate informally, limiting access to capital, reducing business stability, and shrinking the local tax base. Core metrics that community leaders are expected to improve. Without structured guidance, these founders face the highest closure rates, directly undermining business retention, job creation, and equitable-growth goals.
That’s why ESO exists
The Economic Mobility Company for Communities and the
Organizations That Advocate For Them.
