You’re invited to apply: Communitech’s Women Entrepreneurs Bootcamp
Looking for a way to launch and grow your business idea in Waterloo Region? As part of Google for Entrepreneurs #40Forward initiative, Communitech is hosting a two-part Women Entrepreneurs Bootcamp. Applications are now open.
Increase your exposure to our local ecosystem and gain a solid foundation for startup success as we take you through a mix of core concepts and practical application.
This two-part bootcamp features:
Part I: Ideation (August 19-21)
Develop your business idea and hone in on a minimum viable product. The three day session culminates in a pitch practice where teams receive extensive feedback to prepare for the next round--or are sent back to the drawing board.
Part II: Building (September 23-25)
Tune your business engine with an accelerated introduction to Basic Finance/Accounting, Marketing/Sales, HR, Compliance, Legal and Insurance. Then, compete for seed funding at the final pitch competition before an all-star panel of judges:
1st prize $15,000
2nd prize $7,000
3rd prize $3,000
If you have a strong interest in becoming an entrepreneur, and have a clearly defined area or idea for creating a new business, apply before July 25, 2014.
