Partner With EAB
Expand Opportunity. Empower Growth. Create Lasting Impact.
Entrepreneurs Across Borders (EAB) exists to close the gap between entrepreneurial ambition and access to opportunity in developing nations. Our partners help make that possible.
Whether you're a non-profit innovator, academic leader, government changemaker, or mission-aligned business, EAB offers a scalable platform for connection, capacity-building, and long-term economic empowerment.
Why Partner With EAB?
Entrepreneurship is one of the fastest and most effective ways to lift communities out of poverty. However, without connections to capital, mentorship, or markets, many promising entrepreneurs never reach their full potential.
EAB bridges that gap—not through charity, but through ecosystem building. Our partners help unlock local potential by co-delivering resources, mentorship, and visibility to underserved founders.
Together, we:
-
Strengthen local economies by investing in grassroots businesses
-
Enable sustainable growth that outlasts short-term aid cycles
-
Empower entrepreneurs to become job creators in their communities
Partnerships unlock potential—connecting talent to opportunity, ideas to impact, and entrepreneurs to a world of possibilities.

If you're a mission-driven nonprofit focused on economic development, youth opportunity, or community revitalization, EAB can help amplify your impact.
We offer:
- A tech-enabled platform (EAB Connect) for program delivery and data collection
- Co-branded training modules for entrepreneurs
- Mentorship infrastructure tailored for diaspora and international support
- Reporting and storytelling tools to highlight donor impact
Example: A local NGO in Kingston co-hosts Office Hours with diaspora mentors to help MSMEs gain visibility and strategic guidance.

FAQs
If you do not see the answer to your question below, please contact us.
Do I need to be in Jamaica to partner with EAB?
No. We work with global organizations and support hybrid program delivery.
Can I fund a specific demographic or region?
Yes. Many partners co-create initiatives focused on youth, women, rural communities, or priority sectors.
How will my support be tracked?
Partners receive quarterly reports with data on engagement, outcomes, and reach.
Can I contribute non-monetary support?
Absolutely. Mentorship, tech platforms, storytelling, and talent pipelines are all welcome.
What kinds of partnerships is EAB looking for?
EAB is in the business of making friends. We are always looking for partners who share the same passion for entrepreneurship and giving first without expecting anything in return. We partner with other non-profits with similar missions, government agencies, and institutes of higher education.
Why does EAB put so much focus on partnerships?
Collaboration and partnerships allow focused execution on areas that align with an organization's strengths, mission, and capacity. We believe that partnering organizations help elevate the thinking and practices that can often become myopic when we act in siloes. Lastly no organization (even entire governments) can accomplish success in every area. Partnerships provide opportunities for more and more people to be positively impacted in ways that no single organization can.
What organizations are not a good partnership fit for EAB?
At EAB, community is central to our mission. As such, we do not partner with organizations that do not align with our core values of empowerment, inclusivity, innovation, and community.
