.
Daniel Isenberg is a Babson Global professor of entrepreneurship practice and the founding executive director of the Babson Entrepreneurship Ecosystem Project (BEEP), an initiative that has been active in metro regions around the world to build and manage regional coalitions to create the policies, structures, programs and climate that foster growth entrepreneurship.
Milwaukee is the first city in the United States to use his model to enable a platform to foster the area's entrepreneurship "ecosystem”. This initiative was named Scale Up Milwaukee and is a region-wide project helping entrepreneurs infuse their ventures with growth, which also helps the ecosystem “stakeholders” (educators, government, banks, equity investors, public institutions, corporations, local and national media) learn how to encourage and support that growth.
One project launched by Scale Up Milwaukee is the Scalerator program which is for companies with approximately $500K to $5 million of booked revenues, irrespective of sector or industry. The Scalerator program provides 6 months of intensive training at no cost for business owners and key team members who are active managers that are extremely motivated to grow their businesses. A core of the best faculty from Babson College (ranked for 20 years above Harvard, Stanford and others as #1 in entrepreneurship education) and other experts (local and international) will conduct hands-on, and practical workshop sessions to help business entrepreneurs kick off and sustain a more rapid growth trajectory.
Companies interested in the program can learn more about past Scalerator participants and the Scalerator 2014 program that started on October 24, 2014 and will conclude in March 2015.
