Building for the Future
Cox Enterprises is empowering future generations of entrepreneurs, strengthening our economy and boosting the city of Atlanta’s reputation as a tech hub by investing in growth platforms like Endeavor and Startup Runway, which are bringing jobs and millions of dollars’ worth of investments to the city where we are headquartered.
Endeavor
Endeavor Atlanta is a global nonprofit that supports the entrepreneurial spirit to drive job creation, sustain economic growth and inspire future generations of startup founders. With seed funding from Cox Enterprises, Endeavor launched a location in Atlanta to expand its U.S. presence. Endeavor entrepreneurs often go on to mentor and invest in the next generation of founders or serve on the boards of Endeavor offices.
Startup Runway
Startup Runway Foundation’s mission is to connect top women-and minority-led startups with seed capital. It is the largest pitch event for women- and minority-led startups in the country and provides a cash grant prize to winners selected by qualified seed stage investors. The program has supported more than 400 investor introductions, coaching for 1,000 startups in their path to seed capital, and raised over $18 million for finalists in just two years.
Cox is proud to be the presenting sponsor for the Startup Runway Foundation.
