Message from EEC Ohio CEO

Dear Friends of EEC Ohio,
 
EEC Ohio considers its first full year as Northeast Ohio’s collegiate entrepreneurship hub a success, but we know our work has only just begun. 

​As we spoke with all our members this summer, we heard a wealth of ideas and innovations you would like to see come to fruition for our region.  We take these suggestions to heart and will be exploring these opportunities with our members at the 2023 annual meeting in November. The Board of Directors will then take these ideas and conduct a strategy-shaping exercise at a special retreat later this fall, all aimed at launching into 2024 with a sharper vision of the future. 
 
Of course, implementing our vision takes financial resources, and EEC has more work to do to identify new sources of funding to achieve our goals. 
 
We would not be where we are without the unflagging spirit of collaboration among our members, and for this dedication to our values and mission, we say thank you!  
 
Kind regards,
 
Deb Hoover 
Chief Executive Officer 
Entrepreneurship Education Consortium Ohio
