About Us
Purpose of ERI
The purpose of ERI is to train educators at all levels (colleges, workforces, non-profits, and corporations) in lean startup methods.
There are 14 different ways to validate a concept, and our reference is the only document with each listed and explained.
Nitty Gritty
The Core Program builds on the work of Clinton E. Day, entrepreneurship professor and author, through group lectures, workshops, and book talks to affinity groups.
Our primary emphasis is training the “lean”, evidenced-based state-of-the-art method. Because of its validation nature, anyone with desire can learn entrepreneurship and start their own business. Each ERI teacher is credentialed in the methodology.
Validated Planning
Silicon Valley startups have designed a better and more successful way to start a new business. Because evidenced-based entrepreneurship uses validated planning, it doubles the chances for success and reduces risk.
ERI embraces this method of planning sometimes called lean or smart startup, and its staff have been formally trained to teach others the method.
Giving to ERI
Help us spread the survival skills of lean entrepreneurship to more newly created jobless workers. With their own desire, those unemployed persons because of A.I., Gig Economy growth, and COVID-19 job losses can start their own successful business.
