The Gabriel Institute, creators of a new technology that measures how people will perform on a team, has just launched an unusual crowdfunding campaign on Indigogo.com. The funding will enable TGI to complete a component that is specifically designed to predict entrepreneurial ‘fit to mission’.
Like most crowdfunding offers, contributors will collect ‘Perks’ in exchange for funding support. What’s different in TGI’s campaign is that 10,000 of the new Entrepreneurial Teamability reports will become a free resource to any entrepreneur, anywhere, who is participating in a startup incubator, business accelerator, or entrepreneurship program.
InnovationAmerica Founder and CEO Rich Bendis is a contributor to a TGI white paper on the measurement of entrepreneurial potential. Interviewed at the Innovation America office in downtown Philadelphia, Mr. Bendis said:
“I think Teamability is the most critical element for successful entrepreneurial businesses. The more people that emulate the culture, philosophy, and spirit of that Founder, the more successful the business will be.”
Research by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation has proven that entrepreneurs are the only true job creators. The TGI ‘pay it forward’ plan is designed to help more startups succeed.
