Soul of the City. Review of Stakeholders and Assets The first step for creating a TCP is to assess the organization structure by analyzing the stakeholders and assets with the Atlanta Technopolis Wheel and propose recommendations for strengthening areas of weakness. If the organization structure is inadequate, an EM will not function effectively. Atlanta clearly has a strong contingent of stakeholders and assets in place for a successful tech cluster plan. Multiple weaknesses, however, as discussed in Chapter 4, are still prevalent. A summary of that review is helpful to isolate areas of weakness: • Early-stage capital community: 30+ early-stage investors and accelerators that invest including Noro-Mosley Partners, Overline, Panorama Ventures, Tech Square Ventures.

There are 20+ accelerator and incubator programs spanning various verticals and stages, with many that invest in companies. → Recommendation(s): Support the expansion and development of impact-focused programs to help those in underserved communities launch new businesses. • Influencers: Business leaders, celebrities, and high...
