“Since I’ve joined EO, I’ve sold two businesses, grown from 3 employees to 75+ and increased revenue 10x. There is no question EO has had a seven figure impact on my business and, more importantly, made me a better entrepreneur and leader.”
— Jesse Lipson, Emeritus Sponsor, Founder of ShareFile
What is an Emeritus Sponsor?
Emeritus Sponsor is an innovative program within the Raleigh Durham EO chapter designed to encourage past members in the community to continue to engage with the chapter and share their experiences with the current membership. Emeritus Sponsors will be invited to participate in all the Raleigh Durham EO chapter’s events. They will not be a part of a forum or have access to EO global opportunities.
The sponsorship is designed to keep long time members engaged with the local chapter while also giving local chapter members access to their experience and expertise. EO Raleigh Durham’s goal is to be the premier entrepreneurial community in the Triangle. Emeritus Sponsorships are a way to keep long time chapter members a part of that community as they sell their businesses, age out of their forums or simply retire from working full time.
Fill out the form if you’re interested in joining and we will reach out to begin the process.
