The Alabama Capital Network (“ACN”), founded in 2017, is a non-profit 501c3 whose mission is to increase access to capital for entrepreneurs and educate investors across the state of Alabama. ACN is growing companies across Alabama by utilizing a network of entrepreneurs, investors, advisors, service providers and corporations to provide access to capital, mentorships, and due diligence. We are bridging the funding gap for Alabama-based companies that are below the typical venture capital threshold. As these companies grow, we will also facilitate relationships with venture capital, either in Alabama or beyond, to continue upward trajectory.
