Who Do We Help?

We exist to build the pipeline of STEM founders from minority communities while simultaneously supporting the local small business economy. Our target population is Nashville residents who meet the following criteria:

Individuals who desire to become entrepreneurs, especially in STEM fields such as biotech, technology, medical devices, etc. Also, individuals who desire training that will assist them in starting a business, or help them obtain careers in high-paying, high-growth fields.

Entrepreneurs in start-ups and existing businesses that want to scale and grow their businesses!
