Welcome to Founders, where we believe in the transformative power of visionaries and the incredible impact they can have on our world.
We are a Nonprofit Corporation committed to empowering founders through the art of storytelling, the gift of education, and the strength of community.
At Founders, our mission is clear: To nurture and support the dreams of entrepreneurs, innovators, and change-makers. We provide the tools, knowledge, and connections necessary to help turn their visions into reality.
Every groundbreaking company or initiative begins with a vision. We understand that journey intimately, as many of us have embarked on our own entrepreneurial endeavors. We’ve faced the challenges, celebrated the victories, and learned invaluable lessons along the way.
The Founders journey began in 2012 with a physical coworking space in Fort Wayne, Indiana formed by a group of serial entrepreneurs and dreamers. The core values from 2012 of creating a space where creative collisions can take place to create a community that is empowered to build and create are very much alive and driving forward the Nonprofit Corporation in 2024.
Founders began the journey to a Nonprofit Corporation in 2021 with the State of Indiana and began working on 501c3 status in 2023.
