Nashville Entrepreneur Center
A Digital Home for Nashville’s Entrepreneurial Community
The Nashville Entrepreneur Center connects founders at every stage with the programs, mentorship, resources, and relationships they need to move forward.
Proof has been part of the EC community since its founding, both as members and longtime creative partners. When the team was ready to rethink its website, we brought that history and understanding into the process. Together, we created a digital experience that makes the organization easier to understand, explore, and engage with.
How We Helped
The EC serves a wide range of people, from first-time founders and growing companies to mentors, members, partners, donors, and volunteers. Its website needed to support each audience without making the experience feel complicated.
We partnered closely with the EC team to organize content, clarify priorities, and create more intuitive paths through the site. From strategy and user experience through design and development, every decision focused on helping visitors understand where they belong and what to do next.

A Clear Path for Every Audience
We began by mapping the EC’s primary audiences, what each one needed, and the actions that mattered most.
Working directly with the EC team, we streamlined the site structure and organized the content around clear user journeys. Whether someone wants to explore a program, attend an event, become a member, or support Nashville’s founders, the new experience makes the next step easy to find.
Translating Energy Into Experience
The EC is active, optimistic, and deeply connected to Nashville’s entrepreneurial community. The website needed to capture that energy while remaining clear and easy to use.
We translated the existing brand into a flexible digital system using bold visuals, engaging photography, and dynamic layouts. The result balances polish with personality while giving the EC team the tools to manage changing programs, events, stories, and opportunities.
Built to Support What Comes Next
The finished website brings the EC’s mission, programs, and community together in one clear experience. It helps founders find the right support, gives partners a better view of the organization’s impact, and makes it easier for the EC team to keep content current.
The result is a digital platform that reflects the EC’s role in Nashville today and gives the organization room to continue growing alongside the entrepreneurs it serves.
Across 244 accelerator alumni companies, the Nashville Entrepreneur Center has helped generate more than $256 million in revenue, raise more than $146 million in capital, and create 1,935 jobs. Our work together focused on making that impact easier to understand and helping more founders connect with the resources, relationships, and opportunities behind it.
