About Us
What is The Entrepreneurial Network?
The Entrepreneurial Network of Nashville (TEN) was created to help Nashville’s entrepreneurs bond with one another, build meaningful relationships, and become the best versions of themselves. Our network is dedicated to fostering genuine connections and real relationships by providing the support you need to grow both personally and professionally. Whether you’re just starting your entrepreneurial journey or already have years of experience, join us to connect with like-minded individuals, share valuable insights, and unlock new opportunities. Together, we’ll elevate one another and turn our ambitions into reality. Through monthly mixers and weekly features, we bring together like-minded individuals who understand the challenges and rewards of entrepreneurship. TENON isn’t just about networking—it’s about creating a community where business owners support and like minded individuals can inspire each other on the journey to success.
Kirklyn Powell is an entrepreneur, real estate professional, and community builder with a passion for bringing people together. After launching multiple ventures and growing his own businesses, he realized a common challenge among entrepreneurs—building a strong local network of like-minded individuals.
Driven by the belief that success is built through connections, Kirklyn created TENON to provide a space where entrepreneurs can meet, collaborate, and support one another. His vision is simple: no business owner should have to navigate the journey alone. Through TENON, he’s fostering a thriving community where ambition meets opportunity, and where entrepreneurs can grow—together.

WHAT IS #TENN-TUESDAY?
We launched #TENN-TUESDAY in Q1 2025 with a mission to bring even more value to the TENON community. Every Tuesday morning, we roll out a fresh #TENN-TUESDAY feature—shared on our blog, posted across socials, and, most importantly, delivered straight to our TENON family’s inbox.
