Our brand is about commitment to Entrepreneurial Households. We want to ensure Entrepreneurial Households have access to fundamental services and growth opportunities through companies that address their needs and aspirations. So, when we speak and make decisions, we ask ourselves first: Is this in the best interest of Entrepreneurial Households?

Does this build trust with Entrepreneurial Households?

We mean it. We’ve even built our business so that Entrepreneurial Households are the main shareholders.

We know there are many myths and biases around Entrepreneurial Households that have resulted in them being underestimated and underserved. Some of these biases have also been internalized by Entrepreneurial Households themselves, hindering them from earning the status and respect their entrepreneurial pursuits should afford them. We cut through these biases by celebrating Entrepreneurial Households via a powerful combination of facts, insights and narratives, ultimately working to shift perceptions and behaviors.

Entrepreneurial Households: Our largest shareholder

Entrepreneurial Households are core to who we are, and our company is built on a commitment to accelerating their economic momentum.

To ensure that Entrepreneurial Households will always be our most essential and largest shareholder, we set up a nonprofit corporation, currently in the process of applying for 501(c)3 status, whose charitable mission is to benefit Entrepreneurial Households.

The EPIC World founders have committed 20% of EPIC World's initial cap table to be held by the nonprofit with the purpose of creating long term value for Entrepreneurial Households as beneficiaries.
