OUR VISION FOR THE FUTURE
� Community Acceleration
� Small & Medium Size
� High Growth
We look forward to a self sustaining North AL startup community that nurtures entrepreneurs that represent our diverse make-up, welcomes risk taking, and that that has at the core, a network of successful entrepreneurs that give back by helping new startups focus their efforts using the latest lean methods.
Mission & Vision

COMMUNITY: THE SUSTAINABLE ACCELERATOR
� It all ends and starts with the community. To become sustainable, the community itself needs to organically transform in the accelerator. This means our efforts have to focus just as much on cultural change and values as on training and mentorship.
Mission & Vision
