About This Grant
This program connects women founders to a premier peer network, collaborative coaching, advisor access, and self‑paced education. It’s positioned to help businesses scale and “change the trajectory” through mentorship and community, not just funding. The page highlights past impact, including an interest‑free loan enabling a contract that led to $5 million in business.
Benefits include programming (webinars, advisory sessions, mentoring, events) and community access; past participants have referenced an interest‑free loan, but no specific dollar figure is guaranteed in this program description.
