There are currently some opportunities for entrepreneurs to learn, refine their ideas, and strengthen their businesses.
Libraries as Launchpads
Powered by Creative Startups
The future starts with you: a no-cost resource for entrepreneurs in need
The coronavirus crisis is hitting everyone hard, and is especially impacting our small businesses and entrepreneurs. For over ten years Creative Startups have been relentlessly devoted to creative founders executing a bold creative vision, and now more than ever they’re committed to seeing creative companies thrive. To achieve that goal, they’ll be offering their Libraries as Launchpads program online at no cost to creative entrepreneurs through the end of May. Re-designed to meet the urgent challenges business owners face due to coronavirus, the program supports entrepreneurs in navigating the current economic downturn.
Interested entrepreneurs who register will be invited to a self-guided course which includes a downloadable workbook, 5 modules, case studies, and a Slack community where they can engage with Creative Startups faculty and an online network of support.
