About this Program


This program is currently on hiatus and will be offered again in the 2025-26 academic year. To get updates, sign up for program updates ("Want to Get the Latest?") below.


Starting your own business or a new venture requires an idea — and an entrepreneurial mindset. Achieving your vision also often requires strong professional and community connections, especially for women-led ventures. According to the World Economic Forum, having access to mentors and supportive networks is key to empowering anyone who wants to build business skills and confidence and bring their ideas to life.

In this program, you’ll learn to craft compelling pitches for your ideas and make sound business decisions in finance, sales and marketing, human resources, and more. You’ll understand common traits of successful startups, investors and intrapreneurs, and you’ll meet inspiring entrepreneurs who were once on a similar path. From day one, you’ll become part of a collaborative peer-to-peer network, and you’ll learn directly from our mentors and instructors, who bring extensive knowledge of the entrepreneurial ecosystem.

Designed For

Anyone who wants to start or operate their own business, join an early-stage startup, pitch a new venture at their current workplace, or become a stronger leader. Also good for investors, business partners or others who want to support women’s entrepreneurship.
