Primary Benefits

• Absolutely no cost to participate.

How it Works

Entrepreneurs attend classes as part of a “cohort” (up to 15 other entrepreneurs) taught by content specialists twice a week. The classes will be a mix of online and in-person. Entrepreneurs will also meet online with their own team of Mentors for a minimum of 60 minutes every week to help guide them in taking their idea to the next level. At the end, an in-person Showcase and Celebration event will be held for entrepreneurs to celebrate their Accelerator Program accomplishments with friends, family, and the community. The total weekly time commitment is 8-10 hours, including 5 hours of classes, 1-1.5 hours of online mentor meetings, and additional time to work on the business.

Who Should Apply?

The Accelerator Program is open to all individuals located in or near an EforAll community and is offered at no cost. EforAll’s program works with individuals across a wide range of industries and is open to people who are still in the idea stage, those with a hobby looking to take it to the next level, or those looking to pivot and grow an existing business or nonprofit.
