Why partnering with exponential impact makes business sense
Exponential Impact (XI) helps Southern Colorado grow the right way by supporting entrepreneurs who build real businesses, create quality jobs, and keep talent and opportunity rooted locally. As the region’s startup accelerator and innovation hub, XI guides founders from idea to scale while strengthening the broader economic ecosystem through a connected set of programs.
The XI Accelerator, which supports Colorado founders across industries in building scalable, resilient companies focused on emerging technology.
Survive & Thrive, which strengthens small businesses and nonprofits in El Paso County through innovative capital solutions that keep dollars circulating locally.
SoCo Startup, which aligns leaders and regions around entrepreneurship as a shared economic strategy through Startup Week.
Together, these programs form a pipeline that builds resilience, fuels innovation, and enables scale. For corporate and business partners, working with XI is not charity, it’s a strategic investment that delivers a stronger talent pipeline, a more resilient regional economy, a credible commitment to innovation and community leadership, and long-term economic returns that extend well beyond a single sponsorship cycle.
