The premier online resource for Heartland founders.

This guide aims to help entrepreneurs find the resources they need to scale their businesses. Endeavor Heartland’s main office is located in Northwest Arkansas and, as of 2021, has expanded to Tulsa, Oklahoma. With this in mind, the Founder’s Resource Guide is a complete directory of Entrepreneurial Support Organizations (ESOs) based in Arkansas and Oklahoma. The listed ESOs offer support for various business types, including Venture Capital Investments, Accelerator/Incubator Programs, Mentorship, Coworking Space, Formal Education/Training, Workshops, and more!

Navigating the Directory

Setting Filters

To highlight the organizations that best support your unique business, utilize the filter function in the upper left-hand corner of the directory. The most popular filters include Business Phase, Verticals, Sub-Verticals, or Resources Offered.

  1. To filter, add a condition and set the name to your preferred filter. Next, set the operator to “has any of.

  2. Lastly, select the options you want to see visible. If you want additional filters, simply add an additional condition through the filter tab.

    Example: “Verticals has any of Agriculture”

Knowing that some organizations support specific demographics, we have included a filter highlighting this. If an organization has “Not Applicable” listed under “Specific Groups Served,” this means that they serve everyone.

Regardless, if there is an organization you are interested in working with, we encourage you to get connected as most organizations are flexible and want to help founders scale their businesses.

Resetting Filters

The best way to reset the filters is to refresh the webpage.
