Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
Plug into the people building things in Myrtle Beach.
eMYRge is a nonprofit community of founders, developers, and people with an idea they have not told anyone about yet. Most of them started by walking in.
Ways in

Four ways to meet this community before you ever think about a desk.
Come to 1 Million Cups®
Free, every Wednesday at 9:00 AM. A local founder presents, the room asks good questions, and you start with a cup of coffee.

Why eMYRge exists
A 501(c)(3) built around community, education, and mentorship
eMYRge exists to make it easier to build something in Myrtle Beach: free public events, workshops that teach real skills, and mentors who answer the awkward questions. The coworking space funds that work. Every membership pays for a room somebody else can walk into for free.
Community
Public events anyone can attend.
Education
Workshops and talks run by practitioners.
Mentorship
Founders matched with local operators.
The City of Myrtle Beach, the SC Department of Commerce, the regional economic development corporation, and Coastal Carolina University stand behind this work.
Programs for founders
Help that comes from people, not a portal
Mentor Connect
Founders are matched with mentors from the local business and tech community for practical, specific help.
