Community Love

Hear from Hudson Valley entrepreneurs who've transformed their businesses with our community support
“HCI was very helpful at the beginning of our launch. The exercise and process of completing a pitch deck was very instrumental to our present and continued success and brings about a sense of clarity to pave a path forward.”
Kristiaan

Atelier Kuki — Hudson, NY

“HCI has been an incredible resource for Edenesque. So much so, due to the efforts of HCI and the deliberate intent of wanting to see small businesses and Edenesque succeed, we were able to close our Friends and Family round of funding. HCI went over and beyond the call of duty and connected me with a wide variety of resources in our community.”
Leslie

Edenesque — Hudson, NY

“HCI has provided us with the context, connections, and community support to go from the early stages of Thrift 2 Fight as a grassroots initiative to a Public Benefit Corporation with a storefront and investment. Having a strong network of people to learn from, bounce ideas off of, and build community with has been tremendously helpful.”
Jillian

Thrift2Fight — Tivoli, NY

“Being an entrepreneur can be isolating at times and HCI is a community you can rely on. They have provided thought partnership and connections that have helped me to set and meet goals. Through the process of working with HCI, I have learned more about myself, my business and I have become more intentional in how to grow.”
Ed
Crumbled+Melt Delivered
“Not only was I introduced to different ideas, I walked away with different tools to organize my business’s short and long term goals. HCI’s expert network and community is not only very well selected and experienced, the experts were willing to take time to brainstorm and ideate – everyone involved is so supportive and approachable.”
Shiela

Tandem

“HCI was exactly what I need to keep my business planning on track and full speed ahead. Their expertise and judgement-free learning environment was a refreshing pace and really helped me focus. I’m a working mom raising two toddlers and Eric was so understanding and flexible with my schedule.”

Kris
Upstate Play

“HCI has been such an amazing community to be part of. Since joining I have been able to meet new contacts and friends in the community that have helped to grow my business and expand my network. They have helped me take my small business off the ground by providing useful trainings, detailed feedback, and always a listening ear. It takes a village, so I recommend anyone starting out on their own to join!”

Kaitlyn
Apres – Kingston, NY
“HCI provides fantastic support for anyone who has a small business, or is looking to start one. The community is diverse and welcoming and it’s a great place to connect with other founders. Whatever your current business challenge, there’s probably someone at HCI who has been there, done that, and is ready to help!”
Jenevra
Lawyer – Kingston, NY
“HCI has been and continues to be a phenomenal resource for professionals in the Hudson Valley looking to learn new skills from varied professionals. Eric is absolutely amazing as he responds to people’s questions with lightening speed, and he has a knack for connecting people together. I can’t recommend this incubator more!”
