During this 10-week program you will have the opportunity to work with awesome coaches to validate and advance your business/business idea. Using the Lean LaunchPad methodology and the Business Model Canvas, you will evaluate the various components of your business model and validate your hypotheses through customer discovery. In addition, we will have guest speakers from the community (successful entrepreneurs!) to discuss the topic of the day through the lens of their experiences. Expected deliverables include a validated business model, a validated market, an investor- or customer-focused pitch deck and an elevator pitch. LaunchIt has graduated over 440 entrepreneurs; many graduates are actively growing their businesses locally and have achieved milestones including winning local pitch competitions, acceptance to local and national accelerators, hiring employees, securing investment, launching products, increasing sales and even successful exits. The application deadline is August 14th. Scholarship opportunities have earlier deadlines.
