As the energy industry in Wyoming struggles through yet another challenging time, there is another call for Wyoming to diversify its economy. Although there have been multiple efforts to expand our economic base, one constant gap is the ability for a new start-up company to access capital in their early stages. There is virtually no organized manner for entrepreneurs to access capital to get their
potential high-growth, job producing, economy-expanding ventures off the ground. Breakthrough 307 looks to not only fill the funding gap for start-up companies, but we will also strive to ensure that these entrepreneurs are surrounded by a culture of like-minded individuals, as well as access to the resources they need to become successful companies. This threefold approach takes form in the shape of BT307: Entrepreneurs, BT307: Connections, and BT307: Investors, all working in unison to create more economic wealth in Wyoming. Breakthrough 307: Entrepreneurs is a custom built program around its participants, providing a constructive and supportive culture to cultivate dreams into real and profitable companies. Entrepreneurs will have access to one another in a format that encourages idea and experience sharing to promote growth. Breakthrough 307: Connections is a group of professionals that will work directly with the BT307: Entrepreneurs to shape their ideas into reality. This group is comprised of lawyers, accountants, marketers, and others who want to have a hand in creating the next group of champion companies. The vision of Breakthrough 307: Investors is to provide early stage seed capital to high-growth potential companies in Wyoming and the Rocky Mountain West, while producing positive returns for investors.
