With the current world's challenges and in order to keep supporting the entrepreneurial community as much as possible, this program will be running fully online and available to those living within the WA regions.

This program is for the regional WA community, and open to residents of Gascoyne, Goldfields-Esperance, Great Southern, Kimberley, Mid West, Peel, Pilbara, South West and Wheatbelt. We also welcome Perth suburbs like Yanchep, Two Rocks and Gingin.

As we value small cohorts to assure a strong connection between the group and the mentors if you are interested and there are no more spots please join the waitlist and we will let you know of the next opportunity.

So, what's involved?

Starting on July 1st, this program will run for 8 weeks where you'll develop new skills, learn new opportunities and network with like-minded business owners. 

This is an opportunity to take stock of where your business or idea is currently at, meet other business owners, explore new ideas, and set a plan for what you want to achieve over the program.

Challenge yourself by focusing on your business through a practical curriculum of topics critical to any successful owner. By the end of the program, you'll have a stronger business and be a stronger owner. 

The program offers you:

• 7 working sessions from Wednesday from 1st July at 4pm-6pm with facilitated workshops to explore a focus topic and apply new frameworks and ideas to help grow your business, talks with mentors and experts in which you get to hear first hand their experience and advice and ask questions and connect to your own challenges, practical assignments & peer-to-peer check-ins to help you put in practice the learning in the real world and bounce the ideas leveraging the power of the group.
