GROWING A BUSINESS IS HARD
EO Accelerator Program
The Resources for Success!


Why Accelerator Exists?
Accelerator exists to fuel EO Membership growth by accelerating success of first-stage entrepreneurs committed to building scalable businesses. The program supports entrepreneurs who wish to grow their companies to US$1 million in sales and beyond by helping develop and enhance their skills in strategy, people, cash and business execution.

What is Accelerator?
Accelerator is experiential, entrepreneurial education program based on an annual calendar year. Through the following education methods, you will be able to demonstrate the application of the content through annual deliverables.

• Quarterly Learning Events – Through a series of quarterly events focused on four core areas: Strategy, People, Finance and Sales & Marketing, this experience-based two year curriculum is delivered by entrepreneurs to entrepreneurs. This access to real world experts provides exposure to practical tools that improve your business.

• Access to Coaches and Business Best Practices – The classroom experience is supplemented with a mentorship component, as well as networking and social gatherings which create a thriving and supportive entrepreneurial community. Monthly accountability groups provide a coached workshop style session where the quarterly event content is applied to the Accelerator’s business through metric-based accountability and goal driven growth. Additionally, based on the discretion of the chapter, Accelerators are invited to select EO learning and social events. These events provide access to EO members where Accelerators can harness the experience and best practices of entrepreneurs from around the globe.

• Peer Community – Accelerator introduces a community of first-stage entrepreneurs and access to peer resources and best practices. The peer network allows for the collaborative application of learning and a peer support for business and personal challenges. You face building your business.

What Accelerator is not?
Accelerator is a program and not a membership organization. It is not traditional classroom-based business education and it is not a leads group for a business. Accelerators are prohibited from soliciting other Accelerators and EO members. Accelerator is a two year model and because of that, Accelerator is not a permanent condition. Accelerator is not an equity based incubation program. Finally, while there are similarities, Accelerator is not EO.
