The E-5-0
Modeled on V-Spring Capital’s V-100, the Foundation seeks nominees, who then each select five individuals, creating the top 50 ‘enlightened entrepreneurs’ or the E-5-O. The Community Foundation of Utah conducts this process annually, building a network of innovators committed to the common good.
The E-5-0 includes recognized business and religious leaders, entrepreneurs, academics, community volunteers, journalists, leaders of nonprofits, and elected officials who:
- pioneer innovative and sustainable approaches to the critical issues facing Utah;
- demonstrate a commitment to community engagement;
- make a profound mark on Utah’s quality of life; and
- value collaboration, entrepreneurship and creativity.
The Community Foundation of Utah is a forum for people from all walks of life and passions, gain new networks, and drive innovation – together. We are delighted to bring together these extraordinary people who, each in their own way, are committed to the future of our state and its residents.
