We made a great decision in choosing this platform to build a robust solution for the North Carolina Entrepreneurial Ecosystem. EcoMap Technologies is pioneering the use of AI to automate the creation of ecosystem maps, effectively solving adoption challenges while allowing each organization to update its own content. Impressively, they are also the first to introduce a ChatGPT-style interface trained specifically on the map’s content

This is a pretty extraordinary story, because a lot of people would’ve bet against them, and they bet on themselves. And that’s why we’re now watching, I think, one of the great tech success stories that we’re seeing in the state right now — and something that I think is literally just beginning.

Our EcoMap has served as a rallying asset for our region. It is a tangible, visual demonstration of how our ecosystem partners come together and is allowing us to see the life of the ecosystem as it grows.

There are dozens of organizations across our state working fiercely to support entrepreneurs, but no single, accurate, and accessible source of truth that profiles their work and the resources and opportunities they sponsor. Adopting an EcoMap solution means that Arkansans now have a digital, central hub to connect with the offices committed to helping them grow their business, making it a vital tool for our statewide community.

EcoMap really serves as the front door to an ecosystem… When I show people the activity within these ecosystems it’s hard to conceptualize it without an entry point.
