Feedback from 2010 Entrepreneur Fellows:
“The program was very valuable. The opportunity to share experiences and solutions with other early stage CEOs and to learn from the mentors was incredibly valuable to our company as we started to grow.” Benjamin S. Parvey II, Blue Sky Power
“The network the program offered, both with the mentors and the other entrepreneurs was the most helpful aspect of the program. I believe that now that relationships have been established, there are opportunities to work together and stay in touch to share advice.” Kelly Sickles, Noveda Technologies
