Free signature training program
Selected entrepreneurs identify their sustainable financial model in tandem with their meaningful, measurable social impact. Every entrepreneur is paired with a dedicated mentor to guide them through the process, while volunteer subject matter experts act as facilitators for each of the 14 program modules.
This approach combines the wisdom and experience of mentors with specialized knowledge from facilitators, offering a well-rounded learning environment and providing essential social capital to ensure the success of each entrepreneur.
