Jason and Stefanie Parks, sibling entrepreneurs, were born and raised and currently live in Columbus, Ohio. The duo owns multiple businesses. In the day-to-day of running their marketing agency, The Media Captain, they frequently speak with inspiring entrepreneurs and business owners.

They felt there wasn’t a publication to showcase the amazing stories of local business owners, which is how Entrepreneurs of Columbus was born in 2018. We don’t just give the fluff-piece positive spin on each business we feature. As business owners ourselves, we wanted to share the trials, tribulations, and setbacks that occur along the way. This is where other aspiring or current entrepreneurs get the most value.Over time, we have interviewed well-known entrepreneurs such as Cameron Mitchell, Debbie Penzone, Joseph Kahn, and many more. One of our favorite aspects of the publication is you can go back to when the original interview took place, read the entrepreneur’s vision and learn how things progressed years later.

EOC not only features local entrepreneurs but has expanded to feature the top businesses in the city based on different industries. We were able to cultivate this list using our proprietary trust factors.
