Six Week Entrepreneur Training Offered by Ada Jobs Foundation
|
ADA, OKLAHOMA - Ada Jobs Foundation
will again host the Startup Ada Boot Camp (SABC), but this year the
event is all virtual, allowing anyone from across the country to
participate. The Boot Camp is a 6-week cohort based online program
designed to equip entrepreneurs with the education and resources needed
to take their businesses from an idea stage to being ready to pitch.
Starting October 6th, 2020, SABC will bring
together a group of passionate early-stage startups and small businesses
for six consecutive Tuesday sessions from 11:00am-2:30pm leading into
Demo Day at The Big Pitch Ada 2020, taking place on November 10.
Each class will include an expert speaker, topic-based
educational curriculum, peer-to-peer interaction, an active work period
for hands-on learning, and networking. Topics include Customer
Discovery, Legal Basics, Intellectual Property, Creating a Viable
Product, Startup Financing, Marketing & Branding, and Pitch
Ready.
"Early-stage entrepreneurs and small business owners looking
at launching a business idea or grow their business are busy people.
This course is designed to ensure the time they're spending is
beneficial to their goals and growth, and will result in building their
networks, refining their skillsets, and ultimately a better product,"
stated AJF Entrepreneurship Specialist and event organizer Srijita Dia
Ghosh. "Our focus at the Ada Jobs Foundation is growing and
supporting our small businesses and entrepreneurs and the Startup Ada
Boot Camp is just one additional way to provide resources to this group
of people."
"The Startup Ada Boot Camp was a wonderful experience that
allowed me to network and learn from successful entrepreneurs in my
community," shared Flor Mendoza, Startup Ada Boot Camp 2019 participant.
"The Boot Camp gave me a foundation that will help me further develop
my business idea. I was able to learn from the customer aspect of
starting a business to the legal and financial aspects."
The deadline to submit an application is September 18. Apply at http://bit.ly/sabc2020.
The course is $75, which covers all necessary educational
materials and technology (Zoom login, Slack Community) access for the
Boot Camp. If the program fee is a barrier, please inquire about
