What Entrepreneurial Engagement Ohio does
Mission
The mission of EEO is: 1) to promote student and community awareness as to the challenges and opportunities the changing regional, national and global economies present for the future; and 2) to provide educational instruction, curriculum, research, training, mentoring and other information that helps develop the entrepreneurial, economic, business, and scientific literacy of students and the community.

Programs
Statewide Ohio STEM Entrepreneurship and Innovation Programming - In 2012, EEO entered into a collaboration with the Ohio Academy of Science ("OAS") to develop a statewide Ohio Youth STEM Commercialization and Entrepreneurship program, which later became known as the Believe in Ohio ("BiO") program. The BiO program included many of the program elements that EEO had earlier developed for Northeast Ohio.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $132k to $0 (−100%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.
