You’re invited to join the Center for Creative Economy for the 2024 Velocity Creative Accelerator Demo Day!
Come meet the teams of diverse businesses who have completed an intensive accelerator designed for creative entrepreneurs.
The Velocity business accelerator helps entrepreneurs develop viable businesses rooted in creativity. This 10-week, cohort-based program includes a robust curriculum, skilled facilitators, and a customized mentor team of subject matter experts from every business discipline. The participants master business basics, solidify their positioning, and refine their pitch for a chance to win one of three seed grants: $10K for the CCE 2024 Velocity Award and two $5k grants for the Wells Fargo Emerging Woman Entrepreneur Awards.
CCE’s business training models have proven success: 77% of program graduates are still in business, earning a collective $24M in revenue and raising $29.5M in investments.
Come explore the demo tables in person and hear the pitches from each startup team. This is your chance to discover the next big thing in creative entrepreneurship!
