"If you're working on an idea for a new business, looking to breath new life into an existing business, or looking to activate entrepreneurship in your rural community...you've come to the right place."

-Andrew Button
MASHUP LAB's work with HUNDRED OF ENTREPRENEURS LOCATED IN RURAL COMMUNITIES has convinced us:

 GREAT IDEAS CAN COME FROM ANYONE, ANYWHERE...

​Our passion and energy is focused on one thing:

 UNLEASHING THE ENTREPRENEURIAL POTENTIAL IN RURAL COMMUNITIES THAT HAS YET TO BE TAPPED INTO

We work with entrepreneurs at the earliest stage in their idea. To get them to have the

 CONFIDENCE & AUDACITY to turn THEIR GREAT IDEA into an AWESOME RURAL BUSINESS.

Mashup Lab is a for-more-than profit company focused on ACTIVATING the ENTREPRENEURIAL talent hidden in our RURAL COMMUNITIES

We ACTIVATE RURAL ENTREPRENEURS & COMMUNITIES to turn their GREAT IDEAS into GREAT BUSINESSES by giving them the tools and confidence to do something AUDACIOUS!

We know they have it in them, we just have to get it out of them!
At Mashup Lab, we believe that there are NO ONE-SIZE-FITS-ALL BUSINESS SOLUTIONS. Everyone's circumstances are different, so we've created MULTIPLE ways to activate that ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT!  

We do all we can to have entrepreneurs take their RAW IDEA, and turn it into their GREAT BUSINESS.

We teach the SKILLS RURAL ENTREPRENEURS NEED to be SUCCESSFUL in our DREAM BUSINESS Program, brain-storm ideas in our MASHUP WEEKENDS, and give entrepreneurs the workspace they need in our #WORKEVOVLED co-working spaces!

WE DO ABSOLUTELY WHATEVER WE CAN FOR ENTREPRENEURS TO SUCCEED IN THEIR COMMUNITIES
