EIRs are experienced professionals who are on contract with Venture Acceleration Program delivery partners. Every entrepreneur in the program is assigned an EIR who becomes their primary advisory, often like an active member of their management team. EIRs coach entrepreneurs through the Venture Growth Model, working closely with them to ensure challenges are overcome and goals are met.
