Flywheel = Social Impact

Flywheel is more than a startup accelerator. We are a hub for social entrepreneurs, community organizations and corporations with a mission to drive social changes in their communities. Flywheel helps social entrepreneurs grow and scale their businesses into enterprises that have both a financial return and social impact. We call it the double bottom line.


How we do it

We support early stage founders dedicated to creating a more equitable and sustainable community through a combination of coaching, subject matter experts, collaborative learning and innovation, and access to our network of startup resources.
