"I come across so many women, minorities, young people and current and former athletes that lack the knowledge and support they need to start and grow businesses," explains Dale Moss. "And there are so many companies, brands, charities and foundations that feel deeply about empowering these individuals, but lack an efficient way to deliver on that worthy promise. Our partnership with The Lonely Entrepreneur not only helps individuals but provides these organizations with a ready-made way to empower the groups they wish to help.""If we really want to empower the individuals we care about, there is nothing more powerful we can do than to give them the skills they need to build a better life and bring their passion to life," explained Michael Dermer, founder of The Lonely Entrepreneur. "The average NFL career lasts 4 years. And many women and minorities will never have access to an incubator or university program. We are proud to partner with Dale and his team to help give these individuals a chance for a better life."

Michael Dermer is an entrepreneur, speaker, lawyer and founder/author of The Lonely Entrepreneur. Michael is considered the founder of not only a company, but an industry – rewarding individuals for healthy behavior. Michael left a promising law career to start IncentOne, the first company to provide rewards for healthy behavior. At the time, rewards in healthcare were not only non-existent – they were offensive. He was told over and over "we will never reward people for things they should be doing to be healthy." After bootstrapping for a decade, his company received a large private equity investment on October 15, 2008. They had arrived. It should have been a time for celebration. Then the financial crisis hit. Ten years were gone in ten days. Bankrupt customers. Investment gone. Credit dead. Family dollars at risk. Angry investors. Family relationships on the brink. It would take two years of working 24 hours a day to save what took ten years to build. The perfect storm. It was doomed. Or was it? Today, health rewards are everywhere, he sold IncentOne to industry innovator Welltok and his company is credited with creating the health rewards industry. What resulted was not only a business success, but the discovery of a unique method on how to thrive under the pressure, chaos and burden of being the entrepreneur. The Lonely Entrepreneur was born.
