In late 2014, a group of Upstate entrepreneurs decided to start an experiment. What would happen if they built a network of likeminded entrepreneurial leaders across multiple Upstate communities? Would people be interested in connecting? Would they find opportunities to collaborate? They decided to call the group UNY50 and started to reach out to their networks in different communities.

Just 18 months after the first meetings, the impact of these collaborations are becoming clear. Below are just a few of the highlights of what some of our member have accomplished in 2016:

There’s no stopping these proven entrepreneurs, corporate intrapreneurs and ecosystem influencers.

All of their bios and social media links have been posted on the UNY50 page. If you feel your startup could benefit from a mentoring session with one of our UNY50 leaders, use the referral button to connect!
