Answers for Entrepreneurs

The MORE Program (Matching Opportunities and Resources for Entrepreneurs) began as a simple idea to help engineering students at the University of Michigan develop ideas into possible new businesses.

Conceived by Brian Balasia and Joe Klecha, successful entrepreneurs themselves while students at U-M and founders of Digerati, MORE provides support services for individuals with potentially viable product and business ideas.

Initially MORE provided entrepreneurial internships for twelve students at University of Michigan's School of Engineering. These recipients were supported with a small financial stipend but more importantly, personal mentoring and access to the resources used by Balasia in the founding of his own business.

Many entrepreneurs don't have the resources necessary to navigate the complicated path to business development. MORE provides access to essential answers and contacts that may not be readily available to everyone who needs them.

Today the MORE Program works in conjunction with a number of foundations including the New Economy Initiative. These partnerships further expand its capabilities and broaden its reach. MORE’s flagship program, InsYght, leverages thousands of business resources and connects entrepreneurs to targeted solutions best suited to their individual needs.
