Three ways to sponsor the ecosystem.
Advisory5 is building the connective tissue of Charlotte's health tech ecosystem.
The ecosystem itself is the product. Your investment keeps advisory boards free for founders and helps build the relationship layer between the people already doing meaningful work here.
Why this exists
Charlotte has world-class health innovation infrastructure — The Pearl, IRCAD North America, Siemens Healthineers, Wake Forest School of Medicine, Connect Labs, and Advocate Health. What is missing is the connective tissue between the people inside it.
Advisory5 is building that layer. Sponsors are not buying logo placement on a page. They are helping create the trust, structure, and repeated interaction that make the ecosystem more useful for founders, advisors, and partners.
And when founders succeed, you are part of how they got there.
Three ways to engage
Pick the level that matches what you want to build. Visibility is about presence. Participation is about relationship. Co-Building is about shaping something together.

How engagement starts
Visibility and Participation begin as 3-month pilots. That gives both sides enough time to see whether the relationship is producing the right conversations, positioning, and ecosystem traction.
Co-Building is different. It is usually a 6-month custom engagement shaped around a specific priority, initiative, or strategic need.
