Membership at Elea is by invitation-only
Though our curation process is more art than science, the breakdown below will provide you with a better understanding as to the type of entrepreneur our community serves.
“I would say it's a group of people who come from an incredibly diverse background, but each with whom has been highly ambitious in their life, but not at the cost of other people, and have a really high moral compass, a high degree of integrity, a high degree of openness, and a willingness to get to know one another and see what unique gifts come out of those conversations."
Ryan Cummins
Founder, Tiny Prime & Omaze
Our members share a penchant for the unconventional and a refusal to stand for anything less than the extraordinary
Purpose-driven
Elea is full of entrepreneurial people who are driven by a purpose greater than themselves. These builders tackle ambitious global challenges—we believe that not everything hard is worth doing, but everything worth doing is hard.
Long-term mindset
Elea's members take an uncommonly long-term & unconventional approach to building their ventures. They seek to align their cap tables and team with their long-term vision for their organizations.
Artists not copiers
Great founders are artists as much as they are entrepreneurs. Elea members are fascinating people who are far more interested in making things that matter than copying what already exists.
More from our members
“Elea is a community of people intrinsically motivated by growth and contribution rather than extrinsically motivated by financials.”
Daniel Dubois
Founder, Entrepreneurs Capital
“An amazing platform for growth and deepening relationships."
Joe DiMartino
President, Radcliff Companies
“Driven, definitely brave, open, movers, shakers, people who look at the world and see opportunity, people willing to feel their pain and do the work, the inner work, the hard work, which really fills me with a lot of confidence because I feel like you're in a room with a lot of achievers. And there's not always that feeling of, are you willing to go inward, not just work on the world around, outside of us, but the world inside us."
Andrea Barrica
Founder, Mahway
“There's lots of groups that have people who might but have a lot, but they don't do a lot. We need people who are builders, who are active. Not who just listen to a podcast now and then or talk at a conference. The people who are actually engaged and excited about the projects that they're working on and are actually trying to help others get to where they've been able to get to in really innovative and creative ways.
