Bridge Entrepreneurs Network (BEN) Colorado

Colorado’s entrepreneurs drive innovation, create jobs, and strengthen communities. But too many founders, especially women, minority, and rural entrepreneurs, face barriers that limit their access to capital, mentorship, and networks. Without support, promising businesses struggle to grow, and Colorado’s economic potential goes untapped.

BEN Colorado bridges that gap. Through personalized mentorship, peer connection, and statewide partnerships, we help founders gain the clarity and confidence to scale. With more than 160 entrepreneurs and 500 volunteer advisors engaged across the state, BEN fuels growth, equity, and opportunity, one entrepreneur at a time.

Small businesses employ nearly half of Colorado’s workforce. Young firms drive job creation, but without strong support, that momentum stalls. 

BEN keeps Colorado’s entrepreneurial engine running strong.
