Testimonials
“The Emerging Enterprise Center has helped us grow from a small home office to a mature company.”
Mark Olazagasti, Incubator Graduate
“When I started with the Emerging Enterprise Center (EEC), I had a business plan but I didn't know how to execute that business plan. One of the things that the EEC helped me concentrate on was to find the resources out there necessary to implement that plan and grow a business.”
