Orange Grove Bio was established with a clear vision: to bridge the gap between promising research programs and the successful development and commercialization of transformative therapies. Our company is driven by the recognition of the disparity in venture capital investment across different regions of the United States, often resulting in groundbreaking discoveries going unexplored and potentially life-changing treatments failing to reach the patients who need them most. Based in Cincinnati, we strategically partner with prominent institutions and researchers across the Midwest, Southeast, and Mid-Atlantic regions. By fostering strong partnerships built on a shared commitment to innovation, our aim is to ensure that discoveries from these regions translate into life-changing treatments for patients, unlocking the full potential of the most promising research programs.

Headway is building a new mental healthcare system that everyone can access making it easy for therapists to accept insurance and scale their practice. 1 in 4 people in the US have a treatable mental health condition, but the vast majority do not get the care they need. The primary reason is cost: the majority of therapists do not accept insurance, meaning paying for therapy is prohibitively expensive for prospective patients. This is where we got our start – Headway has built the first software-enabled network of therapists who accept health insurance, making it easy for therapists to grow their practices, and possible for patients to find quality care they can afford. Headway was founded in 2019 and are now powering 600,000+ appointments per month. To scale its vision, Headway has raised over $325 million in funding from a16z (Andreessen Horowitz), Thrive, Accel, and GV (formerly Google Ventures), Spark Capital, Forerunner Ventures and Health Care Service Corporation. Join us, and make an impact We believe a teams strength is in its people, and we cannot achieve this mission without a team that reflects the diversity of this problem - across race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, age, national origin, religion, family status, disability, military status, and experience.

Ensemble Performing Arts is a partnership of community-focused music and dance businesses that maintain individual identities while sharing resources to ensure their mutual success. We believe that a performing arts education is a lifelong journey and is appropriate for individuals of all ages and skill levels. While many of our teachers are equipped to serve students with collegiate and professional ambitions, and we celebrate our students with these meritorious goals, we are equally delighted to work with students of all abilities seeking to enrich their lives through the performing arts. Students can expect a fun and welcoming learning environment with quality teachers underpinned by individual assessments and personalized guidance throughout their learning journey. While our focus always begins with safe classroom practices and healthy technique, what follows thereafter depends on a student’s unique interests, abilities, and ambitions. We celebrate differences in both teaching styles and learning styles, and always work to find a good fit for our students among our faculty and programs.
