Harnessing indigenous creativity, initiative and commitment is vital to competitiveness in and resilience in the global marketplace.

A key component of any resilient community is the ability to identify and cultivate inherent talents found locally toward job creation, industry diversification and meaningfull employment.

Our partnership with COventures lends us access to several leading technologies and strategies found primarily in high-tech and high-finance hubs. Access to such resources grants NCG the unique ability to help prepare anyone for the rigors of entrepreneurship, and in the process, familiarize them with the gig economy while also qualifying them for hungry employers dissatisfied with outdated recruitment methodologies. 

Companies use COventures platforms to challenge and recruit ideal employees, helping avoid costly mis-hires. Our EntrePR™ program offers tools and processes providing any entrepreneur, organization, company or municipality leading technologies and strategies aimed at actualizing latent talent, regionally — retention is a vital ingredient in resilient communities. The program provides for more accessible entrepreneurial resources, relevant and scalable through open source innovation and social engagement, automated and intuitive via machine learning.

Developed by NCG Managing Director Scott McIntyre, EntrePR™ utilizes a  3-stage process guiding aspiring entrepreneurs  “From Concept to Capital” virtually or physically through venture development processes designed for prescribed outcomes, whether for social impact projects, corporate innovation challenges, or just an aspiring entrepreneur’s really big idea.

COventures technology and strategies allows anyone to participate in the innovation economy, actually adding revenue to host organizations like universities, incubators, accelerators, community co-working spaces, and corporate innovation centers, while remaining negligible- to no-cost for entrepreneurs to employ world class resources otherwise out of reach.
