start or grow your new business.
Just Start: Introduction to Entrepreneurship is designed with aspiring entrepreneurs in mind. The only real prerequisites are: having a business idea that you're ready, willing and excited to share and work on, and a willingness to study, shape and fine-tune that idea in a supportive, collaborative and welcoming environment.
If you're creative, community-minded, and serious about exploring entrepreneurship, we hope you'll join us Friday, November 8th, 2024 from 9:30 AM - 5:00 PM at The Roundhouse. Sign up below!
The just start program is perfect for an entrepreneur who is developing their idea and wants to make sure they're not forgetting anything. It's also beneficial to talk through ideas with other entrepreneurs and have that community of individuals working toward similar goals.

If you're just starting or thinking about starting your own business, I highly recommend participating in this program. It helped to shed light on areas of my business plan that I might have otherwise overlooked.
