Praxis describes themselves as a “creative engine for redemptive entrepreneurship, supporting founders, funders, and innovators motivated by their faith to love their neighbors and renew culture.”
The organization has taken on the mission of helping the world of entrepreneurship approach business in a new, redemptive way.
Praxis has broken up the different ways that business can be approached into three comprehensive fields:
Exploitative:
Ethical:
Redemptive:
All businesses operate using anywhere from one to all of the above fields. Praxis encourages entrepreneurs to operate in the redemptive category through programs and gatherings that form leaders that have valuable leadership skills, self-led experiences to pursue entrepreneurship in your communities, and many other valuable resources that assist entrepreneurs in their redemptive goals.
Praxis views redemptive entrepreneurship as a way to restore and improve our culture, business world, and church. The “ecosystem of resources, relationships, and experiences through which our community advances redemptive entrepreneurship” has stewarded 191 active ventures with a 94% survival rate, created 5,057 jobs, and $355M in total portfolio revenue. Praxis is one of the clearest examples of Christian entrepreneurs working to improve the world of business, and the church, and therefore the lives of everyone that directly or indirectly interacts with them and their ventures.
