An Open Letter from Our Founder

Randi Norfleet

Founder & CEO, Entrepreneurs On The Go!

​

Dear Community,

​

I created Entrepreneurs On The Go! (EOTG) because I believe in the untapped genius that lives in our communities—especially those that have been historically overlooked, underfunded, and underestimated.

​

EOTG is not just a program. It’s a movement. A platform designed to reimagine entrepreneurship as a pathway to legacy, ownership, and generational power. It sets a new precedent—one that proves our communities are not lacking talent or creativity, but simply access, structure, and opportunity.

​

With EOTG, we aim to build ecosystems of economic empowerment. We work with young visionaries—what I call “legacy builders”—to help them shape ideas into enterprises, strategies into structures, and potential into purpose. These are the minds that will not just participate in the economy—they will help reinvent it.

​

My journey here has been unconventional but intentional. From marketing and strategic leadership roles at some of the world’s most influential pharmaceutical companies—Johnson & Johnson , DuPontMerck, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Daiichi Sankyo—to helping build business incubators at Lehman College, to nonprofit work running a New York State entrepreneurial program in the Bronx,  I’ve walked in many worlds. I’ve been a Coro Fellow, a legislative aide for the New York State Assembly Education Committee, a proud alum of Wharton’s Johnson & Johnson Marketing Excellence program and certified six sigma green belt. My bachelor’s in communications and English from SUNY at Albany has prepared me to be a force of change. 

​

All of these experiences have taught me one core truth:

Systems don’t change without people who understand both power and purpose.

​

That’s what EOTG is rooted in.

​

Thanks to the wisdom of my mentor Dr. George C. Fraser, who reminded me that “relationships are the new currency,” I’ve come to realize the most valuable tool we can give the next generation is the ability to connect—with ideas, with people, and with opportunity.

​

Entrepreneurs On The GO! is that connector.

​

We are here to disrupt the status quo—intentionally, urgently, and with love.

Whether you’re a student, a mentor, a policymaker, or a partner, I invite you to join us on this journey.

​

Because when our communities win, we all win.

​

With purpose and possibility,

Randi Norfleet
