Panzanzee is an incubator, accelerator, and co-working space providing a one-stop shop experience for burgeoning social enterprises in Chicago. Panzanzee provides discovery, resources, trust, and traction to social entrepreneurs in the early stages of a venture and who need the help.
Panzanzee, named for the way in which founder Amanda Britt pronounced chimpanzee as a 3-year-old, incubates three types of impact organizations: social impact businesses, traditional commercial businesses, and non-profits with a business model.
The Panzanzee community is a passionate one, based on their "secret sauce" recipe for success: cultivate, aggregate, optimize. Panzanzee's co-working space is also home to attorneys and others interested in offering their services to new social entrepreneurs.
