EO vs Hampton
Two founder organizations with facilitated small groups, separated by industry focus, revenue floor, geography and what is published about cost.

Entrepreneurs' Organization
Owners, founders and majority stakeholders of companies with at least US$1 million of annual revenue.
Hampton
Founders and CEOs of high-growth technology or tech-enabled companies who live in one of Hampton's chapter cities.
EO and Hampton both put founders in a facilitated small group that meets monthly, and both are built for people who own the business. The differences are in scope and disclosure. EO admits owners and founders in any industry with US$1 million in revenue, across more than 220 chapters worldwide, and publishes global dues and initiation. Hampton admits founders of technology and tech-enabled companies with more than US$3 million in revenue (or the funding and exit alternatives), only in its eighteen chapter cities, with a hard rule that its Core groups meet in person; it publishes no price and secondary reports of it disagree. EO's forum is moderated by a member; Hampton's Core has a paid professional facilitator.

| العضو النموذجي | Members are business owners rather than hired executives, and must hold controlling or majority ownership. EO states its member companies' median annual revenue is US$4 million, so the typical member runs a company well above the US$1 million entry threshold but far below YPO-scale businesses. | Members are founders and CEOs of internet, technology or tech-enabled businesses. Hampton states the average member company has about US$23 million in annual revenue on its FAQ and around US$20 million on its about page, well above the US$3 million entry threshold. |

أيهما أنسب ولمن
تحليل تحريري، مفصول عن السجل أعلاه. يأتي بعد المنهجية. لا تُعلَن أيٌّ من المنظمتين أفضل من الأخرى؛ المسألة مسألة ملاءمة.
EO tends to suit founders in any industry, founders below Hampton's revenue floor, founders outside Hampton's cities, and anyone who wants a chapter community with a global calendar rather than a sector peer group. Hampton tends to suit technology founders in its cities who want a room of people at a similar stage in a similar business and who value professional facilitation. The two are not exclusive; founders who qualify for both sometimes hold both memberships, using EO for the community and Hampton for the Core group.
