Our mission is to make information more accessible, so our features focus on helping all stakeholders find, understand, and connect with the information they need

Core Principles

Pre-Populated Data

We'll get the data that matters

We can curate any type of data for any ecosystem, based on what matters to you

Continually Updated

Forget broken links & old dates

We ensure existing data is up to date, and we add new data as it appears in the ecosystem

Feature Flexibility

What you need, when you need it

You can turn on (or off) any of EcoMap's 20+ features depending on your current needs

Fully Customizable

Your brand, your color, your words

All EcoMaps are whitelabeled with the brand, language, colors, styles, and more

Key Features

Event Calendars

News Feed

Keep pulse on major news within the ecosystem, share updates, and stay up to date

Job Boards

Centralize jobs, internships, gigs, and other opportunities people can tap into

Our Goal

We make ecosystem mapping easy, so you can focus on what matters

Unlike other solutions, you do not need to dedicate months of time, or a full-time team member, to launch and manage an EcoMap platform

1
1-2 hours

We'll sit with you to understand the specific ecosystem you want to map, the data you're most interested in, and who you want to engage with the platform.

2
3-4 weeks

Using a combination of advantaged technologies and a highly-trained data team, we'll curate the data that is important to your ecosystem and use case

3
2-4 weeks

We'll collect details about the data, such as names, descriptions, dates, addresses, logos, and more. Then, we'll tag every item with a set of Keywords that describe its industry, location, audience, and more

4
2-3 hours

We'll work with you to configure your platform with the branding, language, and features that you want to launch with. No worries if you change your mind later - you can edit these things at any time

5
2-3 days

We'll help come up with your launch strategy based on your target audiences and outcomes, using launch events, digital marketing, and more

6

After you launch, we'll keep your data updated, so you can focus on engaging stakeholders, sharing the platform, and focusing on what matters: growing your ecosystem

Customer Benefits

Admin Time

Reduce the amount of time you spend setting up and managing technology

Ecosystem Mapping is hard. We make it easy, and dare we say - fun

faq
1.

How do you get the data?

For over 4 years, EcoMap has been developing powerful, proprietary technology that allows us to rapidly aggregate, standardize, & update data from all types of ecosystems. We pair this technology with a 10+ person expert data team to get the data that matters most to each of our customers

2.

How much does it cost?

EcoMaps range in price based on the volume of data that is curated (we don't charge for any user-generated data or the number of users), Most EcoMaps fall between $5k - $50k per year. There's a one-time $10k implementation for a new platform

3.

How long does it take to launch?

The launch timeline depends primarily on the size of the ecosystem being mapped. Most EcoMaps take between 2-8 weeks from start to launch, but we can adjust these timelines based on customer needs

4.

How is EcoMap different than ______?

EcoMap is the only platform on the market that comes pre-populated with the data that matters to you, no matter what the ecosystem is or what information you want to centralize. Other platforms force you to populate the data yourself, or cost $250k+ for consultants and custom development

5.

Does EcoMap offer additional services?

In addition to our powerful technology tools, we can also provide Custom Solution Development, Enhanced Data Analysis, and Product Marketing Support to our customers

About EcoMap Tech

EcoMap

Tech

A Quick History

2018: The Idea

While running the accelerators at Johns Hopkins, our CEO realized that even though we live & work in ecosystems everyday, they are almost totally invisible and impossible to easily navigate

2018-2020: The Research

We researched hundreds of ecosystems across the world to understand why better platforms didn't exist. When we discovered it was a data problem, we researched if we could build tech to fix it (we could!)

2020: The Launch

After 2 years of research, development, and iteration, we launched the EcoMap Version 2 in Jan 2020, for Baltimore's business ecosystem. People immediately starting using it and loved how easy it was to navigate

2020-2022: The Sprint

Demand for EcoMaps was insane from the day we launched. We spent 2 years sprinting to keep up with demand for our platforms, grow our team, and make our technology even better for our customers and users

Now: The Ecosystem Company

EcoMap is a 30+ person team dedicated to making information more accessible. Our vision is to make Every Ecosystem, Everywhere, Accessible to Everyone
