Its mission is to "select, mentor and accelerate the best High-Impact Entrepreneurs around the world".[2] ModelEndeavor aims to identify and support those entrepreneurs with the greatest potential for economic and social impact in their regions. Endeavor provides the entrepreneurs in its network with services that will help them grow their ventures, create jobs, transform economies and support future generations of entrepreneurs.[3] Since 1997, Endeavor has screened and provided feedback to over 50,000 candidates and selected 1,500 High-Impact Entrepreneurs from 1,000 companies. Supported and mentored by a network of 2,500+ local and global business leaders, these entrepreneurs have created over 650,000 high-value jobs and in 2016 generated $10 billion in revenues.[4] Among other impact metrics, companies in the Endeavor portfolio average a 68% growth rate within the first two years of selection.[5] Currently, Endeavor Entrepreneurs donate annually back to the organization, which eventually aims to be self-sustaining.
