goBRANDgo!, a full-service marketing firm for $1M to $15M entrepreneurs, will celebrate the recent selection of their go!-celerator program’s contest winners with open
arms, an open house…and one free year of business services and opportunities.
Partners Derek Weber and Shrewsbury resident Brandon Dempsey will introduce the winning company, HCP United, to the St. Louis community on Mon., June 3 from 4 to 6 p.m. The event will be held at goBRANDgo!’s offices located at 3301 Wisconsin Ave.
As inaugural winners of the go!-celerator program, HCP United will receive a free year of office space, networking opportunities and mentoring which amounts to approximately $50,000 in agency resources. The idea: to
provide a young entrepreneur born in 1983 or later all of the necessary tools to ensure that person focuses solely on growing a start-up business with a solid foundation.

HCP United (www.hcpunited.com) is an integrated
E-Dispensary platform designed for member-based
purchasing groups that allows healthcare providers to deliver more affordable care. Company partners are Nathan Johnson, 21, West Des Moines, IA; Nick Turner, 23, St. Louis, MO, and; Quinn Worden, 23, Tyngsboro, MA.
The premise for go!-celerator came when Derek Weber and Brandon Dempsey began reflecting on their own start-up experience. Weber founded goBRANDgo! in 2003, and Dempsey joined as a partner in 2010. They both
launched entrepreneurial ventures in their early twenties, so they understand the struggles of starting out on their own.
