The reality of entrepreneurship is that you cannot do it all on your own. Entrepreneurs need the support of talented and experienced guides. Entrepreneurial Support Organizations (ESOs) fill this role in many ways: as advisors, strategic partners, investors, consultants, interns, and employees. ESOs will challenge you and help your business grow. There are many benefits to being a part of an ESO, but the most important aspect is the opportunity to connect with like-minded people who can support you through the difficult times and provide guidance along your entrepreneurial journey.
