StartLouis’s (V5.12)
Vision / Mission / Tag Line: More Detail:
(Part #02):

StartLouis is a “Starting Point” and can act as a “Funnel” to Support, Promote, and Connect the “St. Louis Metro Region” which includes 
Founders / “StartUps” / Entrepreneurs / Innovators, SMB’s and Some Other Entities in the EcoNetwork / System,
in the “St. Louis MSA Area” 
Including the 15 surrounding counties, 
including Illinois.

StartLouis strives to be “Independent / Agnostic” to All Other “ESO’s” and “Supportive Entities”.
StartLouis is “Self-Funded”, and does not accept “compensation” from any entity for: posts, emails, text's or other communication.
StartLouis purpose is to support the “St. Louis Metro Region”, as define above,
and the general “StartUp World” in the U.S. and around the World.

Also to “educate” the various groups above about new technologies and trends.

In addition on occasion Ed Schneider offers comments, opinions that in general supports the Vision / Mission of StartLouis.

On a personal note, I believe in “Work, Life Balance” However, In my opinion sometimes they can intertwine, and each person can define “Work, Life Balance” differently”. (SecUP:021626-0200P)
