In an age of rapidly changing markets, fast-paced tech innovation, and pressure to think bigger, entrepreneurship seems riskier than ever. But what if there was a global network of thousands of like-minded entrepreneurs that had your back?
Endeavor is the "Global Network of Trust of, by, and for entrepreneurs" with 42 offices located across the globe, including Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, U.S. and Canada. In 2020, Endeavor expanded to the Northeast U.S.—including Cleveland—to support high-impact founders scaling their companies. Today Endeavor’s community includes more than 2,900 entrepreneurs building transformational companies across 45+ markets. As of 2024, these entrepreneurs have generated $88.5 billion in revenue and created over 4 million jobs worldwide.
Part of this global network of entrepreneurs is Songe LaRon, Co-founder & CEO of SQUIRE Technologies, the world’s leading and fastest-growing software technology platform for barbershops, a hundred-billion-dollar global industry. Since its inception in 2015, SQUIRE has acquired over 2000+ partners in over 40 major markets and across three continents. Alan Rosenhoch is Managing Director of Endeavor Northeast US, leading entrepreneur sourcing, selection, and support across Western New York, Northeast Ohio, and Western Pennsylvania. He is currently spearheading the office's expansion into Cleveland and Pittsburgh, working to build out the entrepreneurial ecosystems in both cities.
