MOBILE, Ala. — [April 9, 2026] — Innovation Portal, downtown Mobile’s business incubator, will host its 2nd Annual We Run on EOS (™) event on Friday, May 1st — a gathering for entrepreneurs and business leaders running on the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS®), or curious about what it could do for their company.

Developed by Gino Wickman and detailed in Traction, EOS ® is a comprehensive business framework used by more than 200,000 companies worldwide to clarify vision, align teams, and build the discipline to execute. The system centers on three key roles: the Visionary, who drives big-picture thinking and creative energy; the Integrator, who turns the Visionary’s ideas into operational reality; and the Implementer, a certified EOS professional who guides leadership teams through the process. Together, these roles form the leadership foundation that EOS-run companies are built on.

Featured speakers include:

● Kyle Mealy, Visionary, ENRG

● Forrest Derr, Founder, ENRG

● EOS Implementers(™): Mike Ellicott, Chris Trout, and Matt Hahne

● …and many more

“One of the biggest challenges entrepreneurs face isn’t a lack of ideas — it’s building the operational foundation to execute on them,” said Todd Greer, PhD, Executive Director of Innovation Portal. “EOS gives teams a common language and a proven structure for doing that.”

Whether you’re a seasoned EOS ® company, a team exploring the system for the first time, or a founder wondering why your vision isn’t translating into results — this event is built for you.

Sponsored by Next Level Revenue, Derr Consulting, C2 Wealth Strategies,Titus Talent, and Innovation Portal.
