ABOUT THE GRANT
The Accelerate Grant Program is designed to take your business to the next level!
This grant program is open to women-owned businesses that received a WBDC Equity Match Grant, Ignite Grant or Municipal Grant at least 12 months ago and have demonstrated revenue growth as a direct impact of receiving WBDC grant funding.
A select number of applicants will be given the opportunity to participate in a Pitch Event, where an external review committee will select the grant recipients.
The grant funds cannot be used towards operating expenses (e.g. inventory, on-going marketing expenses, salaries), or for past purchases or debt repayment.
