On this episode of Ecosysteming, we are thrilled to feature Nicola Corzine, CEO and Executive Director of the Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center. As the founding leader of this nonprofit dedicated to expanding access and knowledge in entrepreneurship, Nicola brings over 18 years of experience in venture investment, entrepreneurship, and nonprofit leadership. She is a recognized thought leader in capital access, innovation, and ecosystem-building.

Host Thom Ruhe and Nicola engage in a powerful conversation about the Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center’s role in the national entrepreneurial ecosystem and explore why North Carolina’s ecosystem has distinguished itself across the country.

Since its launch in 2014, the Center has empowered more than 100,000 entrepreneurs through free education, mentorship, and immersive programming, while advancing research aimed at identifying and removing barriers to entrepreneurship.
