The eStations are a new breed of business incubator, the likes of which have not been seen in Utah. Grow Utah Ventures has decided to create a better incubator- not just one but three so far. Located in downtown Ogden,the DATC in Kaysville, and the USU Innovation Campus in Logan, the eStations are truly the finest business incubators in the state. Their express purpose is to grow businesses and further the vision that drives Grow Utah Ventures.

The eStations are focused on making young companies successful businesses. They all come with private cubicles/offices, phone lines, copy machines, meeting space, and Internet access.Tenants are hand-selected and personally invited to move their operations from their basement, garage, or spare bedroom to the eStation campus.

Once a business is selected to move in to the eStation, they're not just forgotten about, we really try to meet with them regularly, see what help they need, provide mentorship formally and informally, walk down the halls and chat with them, and make a lot of introductions.

It is this philosophy that launched Grow Utah Ventures- to provide financing, but also provide meaningful mentoring; business conditioning; and a circle of resources.

"The huge benefit for us is the mentorship it provides and the collaboration with the others that are going to be here," says Ryan Wintle, CEO of Elemental Business (now called Future Now), the first company to move into eStation. "There are a lot of relationships being developed, and that's key to an entrepreneur."

The Ogden eStation is located at 2501 Grant Ave. in the old Greyhound Bus Depot. The Kaysville eStation is located at the Simmons Entrepreneurial Center on the campus of the Davis Applied Technology College, 550 East 300 South. The Logan eStation is located on the USU Innovation Campus at 1780 N Research Park Way, Suite 108. If you would like more information about the eStations please e-mail us at info@growutahventures.com.
