Meet Hana Laurenzo—one of the many entrepreneurs who discovered a wealth of learning and possibility in the EO Accelerator program.

When Hana Laurenzo launched her translation business in Fort Worth, Texas, in 2007, she did what every smart small business owner does—joined local professional organizations, like the chamber of commerce, and generally sought opportunities to mingle with like-minded professionals. But it wasn’t until a client told her about the Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO) that she felt she was on to something special. There were just two problems: She wasn’t yet at the million-dollar mark in revenue which would allow her membership and she felt the Accelerator program in Dallas was too far away from her relatively young business. So, Hana waited.
