EntrepreneurFinder is a free interactive resource designed around the needs of entrepreneurs, students, skilled individuals, professionals and investors. The idea behind the site, is to give our users the ability to take control of their professional and entrepreneurial careers from start to finish. And, provide them with tools to find employment or create ways to become self employed. The site assists everyone from students looking for mentors to recruiters and entrepreneurs looking for professionals to investors looking for the next great company in search of funding. By bringing these people together, EntrepreneurFinder will start to act as an online feeder system for entrepreneurship, funneling all the key resources needed to a single freely accessible platform. 20% of new jobs come from start-ups. We need to do all we can to give motivated individuals the tools that they need to build a successful company and employ others.
