⭐ Optional EO Test Drive (10:00am–11:00am)

A behind-the-scenes look at the world’s most trusted community for entrepreneurs.

Growing a company is hard — and doing it alone is even harder.

The Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO) exists to change that.

During this one-hour Test Drive, you’ll:

• Meet local founders who are using EO to break through plateaus

• Experience the power of confidential, founder-to-founder conversations

• Learn how EO helps CEOs make better decisions, faster

• Understand the difference between EO Membership ($1M+ revenue) and the EO Accelerator Program ($250K–$1M)

• See how EO supports the “whole entrepreneur” — business, leadership, relationships, and personal growth

Think of this as your first seat at the table. No pressure. No selling. Just an honest, inside look at how EO helps entrepreneurs achieve their full potential — in business and in life.
