The Path Forward = Women (Innovation + Entrepreneurship)

What does ACTiVATE take?

You do not need to quit your day job to get ACTiVATE'D. With classes in the evenings and some weekends, the majority of women who go through the program continue working full time for someone else or in their own business. Fair Warning: Some do quit to start their business before the class is over! Entrepreneurship is contagious.

Entrepreneurial desire required. Business idea optional.

Women come into the program at various stages: with their own concepts, intellectual property, or, in most cases, no solid idea but lots of passion. Some even have their own businesses already but are looking to add value or accelerate their growth.

Given that ACTiVATE is a combination of in-person and online classes, your engagement drives what you get out of it. Minimum commitments to consider:

Attending class regularly and being fully present
Remaining open and coachable, knowing that we believe your success is our success
Engaging in the online discussions and activities
Taking advantage of the resources and support provided
Paying tuition, which varies by program location
Paying it forward by helping others through your expertise and networks where appropriate.
