This week, Burton D. Morgan Foundation awarded its newest digital recognition badge, the BASE Roundtables Alumni badge, to 33 entrepreneurs who completed the program’s first cohort.

The BASE (Business Acceleration through Shared Experience) Roundtables program brings together founders of early-stage businesses generating less than $1 million in annual revenue. Over the past year, these founders met monthly in small, professionally facilitated groups to share challenges, trade insights, and work through real business issues together. The program is built on the Edward Lowe Foundation’s PeerSpectives® methodology and was offered in partnership with Bounce Innovation Hub and Cleveland State University’s Weston Ideation Lab.

The badge recognizes these graduates for their commitment to peer learning, collaboration, and growth as entrepreneurs. Please join us in congratulating:
