Who We Are
WHAT IS SILICON COULOIR?
Silicon Couloir is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that was founded in 2012. We strive to be the hub connecting local entrepreneurs to all the resources needed to succeed: an expanded personal network, education, access to capital, connection to mentors, and leadership training.
OUR MISSION:
To empower entrepreneurship in the Tetons for a healthy, vibrant community.
OUR VISION:
To provide relevant, world-class programs and support for Teton entrepreneurs.
Community
We value community in all its forms, and strive to build community amongst empowered entrepreneurs. We celebrate diversity of people and thought while nurturing a diverse community of volunteers and servant leaders. Most of all, we value building a healthy and vibrant community that supports all socio-economic levels as well as the natural attributes that make the Tetons region so special. We believe ventures can do "good by doing well and do well by doing good".
Integrity
Ethical and moral behavior is the foundation for everything we say and do. We value listening and learning. We believe open, honest communication and transparency are fundamental to achieving our service mission. We believe the Tetons-forged spirit of directly confronting risk and adventure is part of our region's secret sauce for success.
Commitment
We value 360 commitment. We are committed to putting words into impactful action; to providing world-class programming and support to entrepreneurs and their ventures; to having fun while putting forth monumental effort. In return, we expect those in our ecosystem to commit to excellence and success.
