Called "the Paris of the Caribbean," Saint-Pierre is wiped off the map as Martinique's Mount Pelée volcano erupts with a fury, sending black clouds of superheated gases and dust 420 mph over the seaside town.

Since 1983!
  A not-for-profit cooperative association of independent businesses, founded from an economic development research project on the
importance of small business development conducted by the
 Houston Chamber of Commerce in the late 1970's.

With our first Co-Op meeting held March 14, 1983, to date we've worked with 51,475 people, generating 44,080 tips, leads, referrals and items of new business, generating revenues exceeding one billion dollars, founded the Entrepreneurial Development Center - Houston's first and Texas' oldest small business incubator and co-working space, First Houston Small Business Seed Capital Fund - literally the first small business seed capital fund in Houston, the Womens Business Center - first business incubator for women business owners in the country with residency space and the Virtual Business Center - the first remote business incubator in the world - all totally without public funding, grants, gifts, donations or contributions.

Further, Co-Op companies have won virtually every award for business growth in Houston, some nationally and some even internationally.
 
Further, it was our Entrepreneurial Research Division that conclusively demonstrated "entrepreneurship" could be taught in a classroom environment, resulting in colleges and universities, globally, commencing entrepreneurial classes and courses.
