The CCBC Center for Business Innovation and Trades’ Growth Lab Accelerator Program is offering Randallstown small businesses six months of support to develop strategies for long-term success. Businesses will participate in 12 interactive sessions focused on topics such as financial health, marketing strategy, leadership, operations and technology.
Business owners will receive one-on-one business coaching and networking opportunities, as well as seed funding of up to $5,000. The program is funded by CCBC’s partners the Philip E. & Carole R. Ratcliffe Foundation, Wells Fargo and the National Association for Community College Entrepreneurship’s Everyday Entrepreneur Program.
CCBC’s Growth Lab Accelerator Program provides hands-on support to help established small businesses identify barriers, pursue growth opportunities and execute strategies for success. Participants engage in class sessions, coaching and mentorship designed to enhance business operations, marketing and financial management, while also developing a personalized growth plan to guide their next steps. The inaugural group focuses on Randallstown-based businesses, with plans to expand to additional communities in the future.
A panel of CCBC faculty and community leaders will select the top applicants to participate in the program. To apply contact Delise White at dwhite5@ccbcmd.edu.
