Houston's greatest energy resource is entrepreneurial energy!

to Houston, Texas, USA!

Entrepreneurial energy capital of the world.

The best place to start a business, grow a business, acquire a business or relocate a business!

Starting way back when with the Allen brothers.

And you already know that Houston is the most culturally diverse city in the nation!

Uh huh!

Go look it up for yourself

And we have such things as the Texas Medical Center, largest in the world!

And who was that bunch that dredged the ship channel  so Houston could have a fully functional port for ocean-going vessels?

And it was Houston that had the first domed stadium in the world; We think it should be converted into the first residency business incubator world-wide!

And what about all the Houston people keeping our exceptional city famous:  Paul Barela, Annise Parker, Mike Mangan, Jerry Cooper, Jim McIngvale, Sandy Lawrence, May Wang, Sandra White, Mark Kamin, R. D. Yoder, Willy Verbrugghe, Susan Deison,   Rosemary Behrens, Milton Thibodeaux, Russel Treat, Gail Stolzenburg, Valerie Burson, Doris St. Cyr, Hiett Ives - this list goes on and on and on!!!!!

And you knew, of course, that among the terms of Texas joining the United States way back when was the agreement that any time the pledge to the flag for the United States was given in Texas so would the pledge to the Texas flag be given:
Be sure to remind those "Northerners" to include the Texas pledge.

For Entrepreneurial Knowledge

Recognizing Industry  Leaders:
Services Cooperative Association
Market Expansion ~ Business Development
Entrepreneurial Education ~ Professional Growth
Since 1983!
We operate entirely without grants, gifts, donations, contributions
 or public funding. We don't have our hand out and we are NOT
 your tax dollars at work!  We're independent business owners,
 entirely self-funded and very proud of it.  Our startups have won virtually every award for business growth in Houston, some
 nationally and some   even internationally.  When you want
 assistance with your business, seek only those who have actual hands-on business ownership experience. You'll be glad you did!
  A not-for-profit cooperative association of independent businesses, founded from an economic development research project on the
importance of startup business development conducted by the
 Houston Chamber of Commerce in the late 1970's.

Since our first Co-Op meeting held March 14, 1983, we've worked with 65,647
 people, generating 45,151 tips, leads, referrals and items of new business, generating revenues exceeding one billion dollars, founded the Entrepreneurial Development Center - Houston's first and Texas' oldest small business incubator and co-working space, First Houston Small Business Seed Capital Fund - literally the first small business seed capital fund in Houston, the Womens Business Center - first business incubator for women business owners in the United States with residency space and the Virtual Business Center - the first remote business incubator in the world - all totally without public funding, grants, gifts, donations or contributions. 

Co-Op startup companies have won virtually every award for business growth in Houston, some nationally and some even internationally.
 
Our Entrepreneurial Research conclusively demonstrated A) "entrepreneurship" could be taught in a classroom environment, resulting in colleges and universities, globally, commencing entrepreneurial courses and B) that women starting businesses were seeking a hand-up and a level playing field rather than a hand-out or charity and C) that business incubators actually accelerated business growth resulting in the next generation being named accelerators and D) incubators/accelerators could be entirely self-sufficient by charging a modest royalty interest in client companies and that entrepreneurship was color blind and gender neutral. 
 
Here are but a few of the many endorsements given us.

Here are some of the organizations we've worked with.
