Mark Lange, Executive Director of the Edward Lowe Foundation gives FTJ a brief introduction about the foundation's purpose and the economic gardening initiative.
The foundation embraces the concept of "economic gardening," a unique and proven economic development strategy based on the fundamental concept that entrepreneurs drive economies. Economic gardening helps drive the creation and growth of local business by providing a supportive and enriched environment where these businesses not only grow, but thrive.
The foundation supports entrepreneurship by focusing on second-stage entrepreneurs and the belief that they are vital to the United States economy. The foundation also believes that these entrepreneurs have the best opportunity to succeed if they learn from their peers. To that end, it develops and delivers programs and information that help communities appreciate and support the growth of these entrepreneurs.
