Meet Eliot Bennie

Eliot Bennie is the founder of Founders Collab. An entrepreneur with over ten years of experience in the start-up ecosystem, Eliot understands the value of having an experienced advisor who can help entrepreneurs with a valuable support structure that can help them bring their business ideas to life.

As a fledgling founder, Eliot received guidance from his various advisors when starting out on his entrepreneurial journey. They helped Eliot get his foot in the door, at the right organizations and with the right people, which helped ease his way towards building his dream brand.

This trust and confidence that his advisors had in him and his vision moved and inspired Eliot to offer similar support to other new start-up founders. That’s how Founders Collab came into existence.

With our company, we’ve created a unique community based on the powerful benefits of bringing startup founders, advisors, and investors together from all over the United States. Here, you can join the ranks of other passionate and driven founders, each with their unique entrepreneurial vision. We bring together founders with industry experts and leaders who can offer personalized guidance and advice to entrepreneurs whose causes they believe in. Through their help, you will be able to find it is easier to navigate the obstacles and challenges that are prevalent in the start-up ecosystem.

Outside of Founders Collab, Eliot is a family man who loves to spend time with his family, friends, and his dog Tucker. An avid golfer, you are sure to spot Eliot a golf course early in the morning, getting a few tee-offs and swings in. During winters, you’re likely to find Eliot with his loved ones on the ski slopes of Vail, reconnecting with nature.
