Interview with EEC Ohio
Have you seen our recent video interview with EEC Ohio? Check out the video above where we dive into Dripbox and hear stories from other entrepreneurs on their path to starting their businesses.
When EEC Ohio reached out to include us and Dripbox in their Dream It, Do It series we were so excited. As graduates from Baldwin Wallace University (BW) we have received so much help and support from the Center for Innovation and Growth (CIG) on campus. The CIG helps students or graduates of BW fuel their entrepreneurial dreams through advice, support, and even help finding funding. They do a fantastic job helping young people jumpstart their businesses and help create a clear path for success. We're proud to be BW alumni and thrilled to have had the chance to work with the CIG to make our dream of Dripbox come true.
So how does EEC Ohio tie in?
