Navi
Navi is the gateway to the innovation economy: our tools help folks learn innovation skills, solve mission-critical problems, and start companies. Navi has helped hundreds of innovators and startups via bootcamps, accelerators, and its digital coaching platform. Innovation and entrepreneurship is the liberal arts of the 21st century. Hackathons, accelerators, EIR programs, and innovation labs underscore a global movement: businesses, universities, and institutions of all sizes view entrepreneurship as the essential ingredient for long-term success. We asked ourselves, "What would it take to continuously nurture the world's next great innovators shaping and starting the companies of tomorrow?” Entrepreneurial talent is distributed across the world, but the best resources have often been inaccessible for many innovators and entrepreneurial ecosystems. The biggest risk entrepreneurs face is building something the world does not need. There are countless innovation resources available today, but most ideas never make it off the ground. Navi makes it possible to support entrepreneurs at scale. Navi works with some of the biggest names in education and tech to help accelerate the way founders and innovators start, learn, and scale, and we are thrilled about the results. "Navi helped me discover my potential and confidence. I am able to understand my goals better, be confident in the services I provide, and face my fears as a young entrepreneur. I don’t want this process to end!" - Emma G.
